Abstract

In the present work, raw shrimp shells were modified by sodium chloride, sodium carbonate and sodium acetate. Bioextraction of Cd (II), Mn(II) and Fe(III) ions from real water by the new and safe modified shrimp shells were studied as a function of initial solution pH, shaking time and initial metal ions concentration. The bioextraction is more efficient in pH ? 6 for all the three modified extractor than the unmodified shrimp shells. The adsorption capacities of the three modified shells for Cd (II), Mn (II) and Fe (II) were evaluated using static mode and they are found to be 556,478 and 438 for sod.chloride, 557,492 and 502 for sod. Carbonate and 537,437 and 417 for sod.acetate modified shells, respectively. The results also revealed that the modified extractor show high selectivity toward the analyteions in the presence of Cl?, Br-, I-, SO4--, NO3- ,K+, Ca++, Mg++ and Na+ ions. Based on these results the use of such bioextractor for the environmental application is encouraged.
