Abstract As a kind of cheap natural clay, the attapulgite (APT) was modified by carboxyl multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The MWCNTs/attapulgite composites were characterized by XRD, FT-IR and FE-SEM. The results indicated that the MWCNTs/APT composites were successfully synthesized by the modification reaction with MWCNTs on APT. The isothermal adsorption experiments of Cr(VI) on the MWCNTs/APT composites showed that the maximum adsorption capacity was obtained over 14.9mg/g under pH of 2 and adsorption time for 12h at 293.15K. The adsorption of Cr(VI) on the MWCNTs/APT composites followed a pseudo-first-order kinetic model and the experimental data were best fitted the Langmuir isotherm model. The negative values of ΔGo and the positive values of ΔHo and ΔSo indicated that it was spontaneous, endothermic and entropy-increasing nature of this adsorption process. Compared with pure APT clay and carboxyl MWCNTs, such MWCNTs/APT composites could effectively improve the adsorption performance for Cr(VI), and would have a good application prospect in the wastewater treatment containing chromium.
