Abstract

This study investigated the lead ion removal of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-COOH). The main purpose of this work is to study the possibilities on the removal of Pb(II) ions from aqueous solutions using MWCNTs and MWCNT-COOH surfaces as adsorbents. Removal of Pb(II) ions was investigated using solutions with different concentrations in the range 10 to 100 mg/L. In this study, removal of Pb(II) ions on surfaces has been investigated by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The microstructure of carbon nanotubes were characterized using scanning electron microscopy. Three different kinetic theories were applied to experimental data. The kinetic rates were modeled using the pseudo-first-order, four-type linear pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion. The pseudo-second-order model was found to explain the adsorption kinetics most effectively. The results indicated a significant potential of the multi-walled carbon nanotube as an adsorbent for Pb(II) ion removal.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
