Activated carbon obtained from orange peel (ACOP) was synthesized and used for the removal of heavy metal ions (Cr, Cd, and Co) from aqueous solutions. Two different adsorption models were used for analyzing data. Adsorption capacities were determined: copper ions exhibit the greatest adsorption on activated carbon orange peel because of its size and pH conditions. Adsorption capacity varies as a function of pH. Adsorption isotherms from aqueous solution of heavy metals on ACOP were determined. Adsorption isotherms are consistent with Langmuir's adsorption model. Adsorbent quantity and immersion enthalpy were studied.

The aim of this study was to optimize the adsorption performance of activated carbon (AC), derived from the shell of Penaeus vannamei prawns, on heavy metal ions. Inexpensive, non-toxic, and renewable prawn shells were subjected to carbonization and, subsequently, KOH-activation to produce nanoporous K-Ac. Carbonized prawn shells (CPS) and nanoporous KOH-activated carbon (K-Ac) from prawn shells were prepared and characterized by FTIR, XRD, BET, SEM, and TEM. The results showed that as-produced K-Ac samples were a porous material with microporous and mesoporous structures and had a high specific surface area of 3160 m2/g, average pore size of about 10 nm, and large pore volume of 2.38 m3/g. Furthermore, batches of K-Ac samples were employed for testing the adsorption behavior of Cd2+ in solution. The effects of pH value, initial concentration, and adsorption time on Cd2+ were systematically investigated. Kinetics and isotherm model analysis of the adsorption of Cd2+ on K-Ac showed that experimental data were not only consistent with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm, but also well-described by the quasi-first-order model. Finally, the adsorption behaviors of as-prepared K-Ac were also tested in a ternary mixture of heavy metal ions Cu2+, Cr6+, and Cd2+, and the total adsorption amount of 560 mg/g was obtained.

Tailings generated from mineral processing have attracted worldwide concerns due to creating serious environmental pollution. In this work, porous adsorbents were prepared as a porous block by using silicate tailings, which can adsorb heavy metal ions from the solution and are easy to separate. The synthesized silicate porous material (SPM) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunner–Emmet–Teller (BET), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The material presented a surface area of 3.40 m2⸱g−1, a porosity of 54%, and the compressive strength of 0.6 MPa. The maximum adsorption capacities of Pb2+, Cd2+, and Cu2+ by SPM were 44.83 mg·g−1, 35.36 mg·g−1, and 32.26 mg·g−1, respectively. The experimental data were fitted well by the Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption models. The kinetics of the adsorption process were fitted well by the pseudo-first order kinetic equation. These results show that the porous materials prepared with silicate tailings could act as an effective and low-cost adsorbent for the removal of heavy metal ions from wastewater. This study may provide a new thought on the high-value utilization of tailing for alleviating environmental pressure.
