Abstract

Sorption of Cu2+ and Zn2+ cations from model solutions by humic acids that were extracted from oxidized brown coals of Gusinoozyerskoye deposit has been investigated. An effect of pH value on the extraction of Cu2+ ions has been considered; sorption isotherms of Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions have been plotted. Maximum sorption exchange capacities of humic acids have been calculated on the basis of the Langmuir isotherm equation
