The fluoride adsorption of the as-synthesized LDHs was influenced by the chemical composition of the LDHs and ZA-11 (Zn/Al = 0.97) had the highest capacity for fluoride adsorption (1.14-4.16 mg/g). The adsorption increased after calcination of the LDH up to 500 degrees C. The equilibrium data were fitted to the Freundlich, Langmuir, and Temkin equations. The kinetics of fluoride adsorption followed the pseudo-second order model.

Equilibrium adsorption data were fitted to Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and Generalized isotherm equations. Thermodynamic parameters like Delta G and Delta H values show the feasibility and exothermic nature of the adsorption process. Influence of solution pH and presence of other anions on fluoride adsorption by the clay has also been studied. Presence of carbonate in water was found to have an adverse effect on fluoride adsorption by the clay. pH(pzc) of the clay has been found to be 8.97. A two-step 1st order kinetic model was used to explain the fluoride adsorption kinetics of the as-synthesized clay. It was possible to regenerate the adsorbent with an aqueous solution of 0.01 M NaOH and the effect of regeneration on fluoride adsorption was reported up to five regeneration cycles.

The synthesized composites were characterized using different characterization techniques viz. XRD, DRIFTS, SEM and surface area/porosity analysis. The adsorption potential of the alginate-clay composites was examined for removal of fluoride ions and Orange II dye from water by adsorption. Our studies revealed that these composites had high adsorption capacity for the adsorption of fluoride and Orange II dye from aqueous solutions. The adsorption capacity of the composites was considerably higher than that of either alginate or clay, used individually. The results indicated that these materials might be useful sorbents for groundwater purification/effluent treatment. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc.
