Adsorption Kinetics of Cu(II) and Ni(II) Ions Using Clay in Kulp District of Diyarbakır Province

Abstract

In this study, the adsorption kinetics of Cu (II) and Ni (II) ions in the aqueous medium of the natural clay sample found in Kulp district of Diyarbakır province were investigated. For this purpose, the characterization of the natural clay mineral found in Kulp district of Diyarbakır province was carried out using X-Ray (XRD and XRF) and BET methods. The copper and nickel from the aqueous medium was measurmented at 25, 35 and 45 degrees. When the obtained data were applied to other models, it was found that it followed the Ho McKay equation for both ions. The qmax values here were measured as 1.51, 2.05, 2.30 for Cu (II) and 1.044, 1.086 and 1.741 for Ni (II) at the working temperatures, respectively. The increase in qmax values shows the accuracy of our study.
