Novel gelatin-siloxane hybrid monoliths for heavy metal removal were prepared in the chemical reaction of gelatin with organomodified silicone containing epoxy group. Obtained porous hybrid materials were applied for adsorption of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions. In this paper, the influence of siloxane amount used for the modification of gelatin on adsorbent stability and heavy metal removal was examined. The effect of pH values of the immersion liquid, as well as the contact time, was studied. Morphology, compressive strength and water absorption of hybrid monoliths were investigated. Desorption tests were also performed. The results showed that the higher the amount of the siloxane, the better stability of the hybrid monoliths in aqueous solutions. The highest values of adsorption capacity were observed for Pb(II) ions. The experimental maximum adsorption capacity determined for hybrid monoliths was 3.75 mg/g for Pb(II), 1.76 mg/g for Cu(II) and 1.5 mg/g for Cd(II). The desorption of metal ions for hybrid monoliths stable in aqueous solutions reached 70%. |
