The present study concerns the test of olive stones as an adsorbent for removing Cd(II) and Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions. The experimental elimination of the two cations was carried out batchwise and the influence of certain physico-chemical parameters such as the contact time, the pH of the solution, the temperature, the solid to liquid ratio, the agitation speed were also considered. The equilibrium adsorption capacity of the olive stones for the case of Cr(VI) followed the Langmuir model, whereas for the Cd(II) cations, the two models i.e. Langmuir and Freundlich were equally representative. The adsorption process was found to be of pseudo second order and the rate constants were determined for both cations. The Gibbs free energy sign was negative for the adsorption of both cations, indicating that the process was spontaneous. Finally the olive stones retained chromium more than cadmium, but at optimal conditions, high removal percentages were reached, for both cations.

Abstract Under varied conditions, the IRC 718 ion-exchange resin is used to extract chromium (VI) ions from aqueous solutions. On chromium (VI) removal effectiveness, the effects of adsorption dosage, contact time, beginning metal concentration, and pH were examined. The batch ion exchange process reached equilibrium after around 90 minutes of interaction. With an initial chromium (VI) concentration of 0.5 mg/dm3, the pH-dependent ion-exchange mechanism revealed maximal removal in the pH 2.0–10 range . The adsorption mechanism occurs between Cr(VI) determined as the electron acceptor, and IRC 718 determined as the electron donor. The equilibrium ion-exchange potential and ion transfer quantities for Amberlite IRC 718 were calculated using the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. The overall ion exchange capacity of the resin was determined to be 187.72 mg of chromium (VI)/g of resin at an ideal pH of 6.0.
