摘要:The objective of this work is thus to study the kinetics and adsorption isotherms of Chromium (III) on a superabsorbent polymer PANa (Sodium Polyacrylate). In first, the study of some parameters like contact time and metal concentration, show that the extraction efficiency reaches 80% at a concentration of chromium equal to 4 mg/L. The extraction equilibrium time decreases from 60 mn for 4 mg/L to 30 mn for raised concentrations of Cr(III). In a second step, the study of the kinetics show that the adsorption of Cr(III) onto PANa from aqueous solution is well described by the pseudo-second order kinetic model (the correlation coefficient R²>0.98). The adsorption isotherms of the adsorbent/adsorbate systems studied are described satisfactorily by the mathematical model of Langmuir. Furthermore, the isotherm study revealed that the adsorption is spontaneous and is carried out in monolayer.
