The literature devoted to numerical investigation of adsorption of heavy metal ions on carbon nanotubes is scarce. In this paper molecular dynamics is used to simulate the adsorption process and to investigate the effect of the infl uencing parameters on the rate of adsorption. The predictions of the molecular dynamics simulation show that the adsorption process is improved with increasing the temperature, pH of solution, the mass of nanotubes, and surface modifi cation of CNT using hydroxyl and carboxyl functional groups. The results predicted by the model are compared with the experimental results available in the literature; the close agreement validates the accuracy of the predictions. This study reveals that the water layers around the carbon nanotubes and the interaction energies play important roles in the adsorption process. The study also shows that electrostatic force controls the attraction of zinc ions on the nanotube sidewall.

ABSTRACT In the present work, the process of zinc-ion adsorption by T. chuii biomass have been investigated. This investigation intend to determinate capacity of adsorption the biomass for zinc-ion in water. A weight of 100 mg biomass was put into 6 ppm of the metal-ion solution whose pH varied from 5.0 to 7.0. Then, these solutions were stirred for 30 minutes. After filtering, the metal-ion concentration in the filtrate was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry. The amount of ion adsorbed by the biomass was taken as the difference between the initial and final concentration of the solution. Further, the same method was carried out to the varied concentration. The result showed, the optimum pH for metal-ion adsorption by the biomass is 5.5, having adsorption value 1.106 mg/g. Capacity of zinc-ion adsorption was obtained by varied concentration, yielded value of 3.557 mg/g.   Keywords : T. chuii, biomass, adsorption, spectrometry

Date-pits (an agricultural by-product available commercially) were utilized, with and without activation, as an adsorbent for the removal of Zn2+ and Cu2+ ions from aqueous solutions. Activated carbons were prepared from date-pits by carbon dioxide activation at 700°C. The effects of contact time, pH, temperature and the adsorbent concentration on the removal of Zn2+ and Cu2+ ions were studied. The Freundlich isotherm model described the equilibrium adsorption data. Non-activated date-pits exhibited higher Zn2+ and Cu2+ ion uptake than activated date-pits. The uptake of Cu2+ ions by both activated and non-activated date-pits was higher than the uptake of Zn2+ ions. The uptake of both metal ions increased on increasing the pH value of the system from 3.5 to 5.0 as well as on decreasing the temperature from 50°C to 25°C. Adsorption capacities for the non-activated date-pits towards Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions as high as 0.15 mmol/g and 0.09 mmol/g, respectively, were observed. This study demonstrated that date-pits without any physical or chemical pretreatment could be used as an effective adsorbent for the treatment of waters containing heavy metal ions such as Zn2+ and Cu2+.
