Abstract:
We investigated the removal of Ca(2+) and Cl(-) from CaCl(2) solution at 20-60 degrees C, using magnesium-aluminum oxide, Mg(0.80)Al(0.20)O(1.10), prepared by the thermal decomposition of a hydrotalcite-like compound, Mg(0.80)Al(0.20)(OH)(2)(CO(3))(0.10).0.78 H(2)O. The degree of Ca(2+) and Cl(-) removal from the solution increased with increasing initial CaCl(2) concentration, temperature, and quantity of Mg(0.80)Al(0.20)O(1.10) added. When Mg(0.80)Al(0.20)O(1.10) was added to 0.25 M CaCl(2) solution in a Mg(0.80)Al(0.20)O(1.10)/CaCl(2) molar ratio of 20, the degree of Ca(2+) and Cl(-) removal from the solution at 60 degrees C after 0.5 h was 93.0% and 98.2%, respectively. These results reveal that Mg(0.80)Al(0.20)O(1.10) has the capacity to remove Ca(2+) and Cl(-) simultaneously from aqueous solution.
