Abstract
The adsorption properties of electrochemically and thermally modified saponite relative to heavy metals are analyzed. The tests have found the efficient use and regeneration parameters of the sorbent to ensure maximized adsorption of cations of heavy metals and to enable production of pregnant solutions with high concentrations of heavy metals.
