. and soils. Adsorption is a major processresponsible for accumulation of heavy metals. Therefore thestudy of adsorption processes is of utmost importance forthe understanding of how heavy metals. adsorption behavior of selected heavy metals (Pb, Zn, Cd, etc.) in soils will be taken into account.2. Adsorption of heavy metal ions: backgroundFirst theoretical models for adsorption of metal ions. solu-tion of the model. Often, only a simplified approach is used,i.e., the acid–base properties of the absorbent in absence of the heavy metal of interest are determined by titration. Then, heavy metal...
