Abstract :
Background and Objective: In this paper, the preparation of nano zeolite was carried out at different grinding times using a dry planetary ball mill. Sodium Hexa Meta Phosphate (SHMP) was introduced as the dispersant in the milling of natural zeolite adsorbent. In the next step, to remove and adsorb heavy metal ions such as nickel, copper, and cadmium, the application of nano zeolite was studied in batch mode.
Material and Methodology: In this paper, zeolite nanoparticles were produced using planetary and ball mills. Adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate the adsorption of nickel, copper, and cadmium using new nano zeolite adsorbent.
Findings: The effect of Sodium Hexa Meta Phosphate (SHMP) on grinding and adsorption of ion metals by nano zeolite was investigated and results showed that the application of SHMP led to lower energy consumption in grinding and had a positive effect on nickel and cadmium removal from aqueous solution by nano zeolite particles.
Discussion and Conclusions: The effect of sodium hexametaphosphate on the absorption of nickel, cadmium, and copper metals showed that this reagent had a positive effect on the absorption of nickel and cadmium ions on nanozeolite particles, but it did not affect the absorption of copper ions. Nano-zeolites have a larger external surface area and a shorter diffusion path length due to having nano-sized particles, so their absorption capacity is very high.
