AB - Recent studies have revealed the poisonous nature of aluminum(III) species to aquatic and terrestrial organisms. Therefore,this investigation aims to develop batch adsorption experiments in the laboratory, aiming to the removal of aluminum(III)from aqueous solutions onto powdered activated carbon (PAC). The latter (which is an effective and inexpensive sorbent) wasprepared from olive stones generated as plant wastes and modified with an aqueous modifying oxidizing agent, viz. HNO3.The main parameters (i.e. initial solution pH, sorbent and Al3+ ions concentrations, stirring times and temperature) influencingthe sorption process were examined. The results obtained revealed that the sorption of Al3+ ions onto PAC is endothermic inRadushkevich (D-R) adsorption models over the concentration range studied. Under the optimum experimental conditionsemployed, the removal of ca. 100% Al3+ ions in the concentration range 1.35-2.75 mgl1 was attained. Moreover, theprocedure was successfully applied to the recovery of aluminum spiked to some environmental water samples with an RSD(%), does not exceed 1.22%.
