This study reports thermodynamic and kinetic data of Sb(III) adsorption from single metal solutions onto synthetic aqueous goethite (alpha-FeOOH). Batch equilibrium sorption experiments were carried out at 25 degrees C over a Sb:Fe molar range of 0.005-0.05 and using a goethite concentration of 0.44 g Fe/L. Experimental data were successfully modelled using Langmuir (R-2 >= 0.891) and Freundlich (R-2 >= 0.990) isotherms and the following parameters were derived from triplicate experiments: K-f = 1.903 +/- 0.030 mg/g and 1/n = 0.728 +/- 0.019 for the Freundlich model and b = 0.021 +/- 0.003 L/mg and Q(max) = 61 8 mg/g for the Langmuir model. The thermodynamic parameters determined were the equilibrium constant, K-eq = 1.323 +/- 0.045, and the Gibb's free energy, Delta G(0) = -0.692 +/- 0.083 kJ/mol. The sorption process is very fast. At a Sb:Fe molar ratio of 0.05, 40-50% of the added Sb is adsorbed within 15 min and a steady state is achieved. The experimental data also suggest that desorption can occur within 24 h of reaction due to the oxidation of Sb(III) on the goethite surface. Finally, calculated pH of the aqueous solution using MINTEQ2 agrees well with the measured pH (3.9 +/- 0.7; n = 30). At pH 4, the dominant Sb species in solution are Sb(OH)3 and HSbO2 which both likely adsorb as inner sphere complexes to the positively charged goethite surface. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc.
