Possible using of clay-based nanomaterials in environmental depollution

Abstract

Our experimental research has focused on the production of adsorbents based on ceramic nanomaterials that are sufficiently efficient for the depollution of industrial liquid effluents. The adsorption of lead ions from aqueous solution on Al-pillared clays was investigated in this paper. Adsorption studies of Pb(II) ions on Al3+ pillared clays were carried out using the discontinuous batch technique due to its simplicity and reliability.
