Comparison of Cu(II) Adsorption Using Fly Ash and Natural Sorbents During Temperature Change and Thermal-Alkaline Treatment.

ABSTRACT: Mine effluents represent a serious environmental problem on a global scale. Therefore, the effective treatment of this water is a serious issue in the scientific field. The adsorption process seems to be one of the attractive methods, especially due to the simplicity of design, affordability or high efficiency. The latest scientific knowledge has shown that the use of waste and natural adsorbents is economical and effective. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of the adsorption process of natural and waste materials-zeolite, bentonite and fly ash-under the influence of temperature and modification of these adsorbents. The novelty of this study resides in an adjustment of the modification method of adsorbents compared to previous research: thermal-alkaline treatment versus hydrother
