Description:

Arsenic, antimony and selenium belong to toxic contaminants with high environmental risk. In contrast to metal cationic contaminants (Be, Zn, Cd, Hg Pb, etc.) the metalloids and nonmetals of groups 5 and 6 of periodic system generally form the oxyanions in two oxidizing states (i.e. arsenates and arsenites, antimonates and antimonites, as well as selenates and selenites) in dependence on redox potential and pH value. It is well known that above mentioned oxyanions have a strong adsorption affinity to hydrated oxides and/or oxides hydroxides of Fe, Al and Mn, preferably Fe forming stable surface complexes. In fact, commercially produced Fe oxides-based sorbents are too expensive for strongly contaminated aqueous systems. Aluminosilicates have opened new possibilities in sorption technology due to favourable surface properties, availability, environmental and economical reasons, but they are not selective sorbents of anionic contaminants thanks to a low pHZPC. A simple Fe/Al/Mn pre-treatment of raw aluminosilicates can significantly improve their sorption affinity to oxyanionic contaminants, including arsenites and arsenates, selenites and selenates and antimonites and antimonates, respectively. Different types of natural and/or second-rate clays (metakaolines with the large content of Fe, raw bentonites and natural clinoptilolite-rich tuff, ) from Central European localities were used for FeII, FeIII, AlIII and MnII pre-treatment., Barbora Doušová, Lucie Fuitová, Lenka Herzogová, Tomáš Grygar, David Koloušek and Vladimír Machovič., and Obsahuje bibliografii
