Abstract

This study investigated the adsorption of Ni(II) ions on powdered fishbone as a low-cost adsorbent from aqueous solution. The powdered material was characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectrophotometer) and Scanning Electron Microscope. The determination of Nickel ions was performed on Perkin Elmer model Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS). The effects of hydrogen ion concentration (pH), initial metal concentration and contact time of the adsorption were studied. The adsorption experiments were carried keeping the adsorbent weight (2g) constant. The powdered fish bone recorded 98 % of Ni(II)adsorption under conditions of pH 7, adsorbent and initial metal concentration 20ppm at a contact time of 30 minutes.
