The main objective was to study the removal of lead cations from aqueous solutions by sorption onto bentonite and its modificati ons. Modification included natrification by NaCl and intercalation by octadecylamine (ODA) in two different weight ratios. The sorption isotherms were described using the Langmuir and Freundlich models. The adsorptive capacities of the or iginal bentonite increased af ter the intercalation of ODA. Adsorption of Pb ions, calculated by the La ngmuir model, yielded 97.15mg of Pb ions on 1g ...

The cement as a building material significan tly affects the environment throughout the whole life cycle. The environmental assessm ent of products should be a factor of importance in term of protection of the e nvironment and human safety. Environmental assessment of type I which determines the criteria for materials and products is the most used evaluation process in Slovak Republic. Cements environmental criteri a within the Slovak eco-lab elling process include the energy consumption limitation for production ...
