Investigations into the kinetics and thermodynamics of Sb(III) adsorption on goethite (α-FeOOH)
This study reports thermodynamic and kinetic data of Sb(III) adsorption from single metal solutions onto synthetic aqueous goethite (α-FeOOH). Batch equilibrium sorption experiments were carried out at 25 °C over a Sb:Fe molar range of 0.005-0.05 and using a goethite concentration of 0.44 g Fe/L. Experimental data were successfully modelled using Langmuir (R2 ≥ 0.891) and Freundlich (R2 ≥ 0.990) i
