Abstract

This study reported the reduction of metal Hg (II) from water using natural kaolinite (NK) based adsorbents compared with modified kaolinite adsorbents with Hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide anionic surfactants using ultrasonic technology (SMK). These adsorbent samples were characterized using several different techniques such as FTIR, X-RD and AAS analysis. The adsorption capacity is influenced by variables such as the contact time and adsorben dosage. The results of the analysis reported that the maximum waste reduction efficiency occurs in modified kaolin (SMK), where adsorption occurs faster than natural kaolin (NK). The maximum persentation is 94.57% for metal removal efficiency using modified kaolin at the contact time of 45 minutes and the dose of adsobene 1.4 g, while kaolin without modification is 73.83% of efficiency at the contact time of 60 minutes the adsobent dose was 1.4 g. The use of the adsorption method with the help of ultrasonic technology is proven to be more efficient in accelerating the removal of Hg2+ ions by increasing the surface dispersion of the adsorbent with metal ions in water. The adsorption kinetics model that is suitable for calculating the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent in the removal of Hg2+ ions using unmodified kaolin is pseudo-second-order models.
