3. Results and conclusions
Isotherms have been made at 0, 20 and 35 °C for the hydrotalcites, and at 0 and 35 °C for the organohydrotalcites, calcined and without calcining in both cases. All these isotherms have been adjusted to the adsorption models defined by Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin and Dubinin- Raduskevich.
The study shows that the applied heat treatment, such as the temperature at which the isotherm is made, is an important factor that affect the adsorption processes. The maximum adsorption capacity of the hydrotalcite MgAlCO3-500 °C (synthesized) at a temperature of 0 °C is 140 mg / g. For organohydrotalcites, the maximum adsorption capacity is 170 mg / g, in the case of TDD- 500 °C at a temperature of 0 °C.
