摘　　要：H＋-rectorite clay,which was prepared by modifying the raw rectorite with 10% hydrochloric acid at 60 °C for 24 h,was used as an absorbent for removal of methyl blue （MB） from aqueous solutions.The morphology and the structure and crystallinity of the pristine rectorite and the H＋-rectorite were characterized by scanning electron microscopy （SEM） technique and X-ray diffraction （XRD） technique,respectively.The results showed that the H＋-rectorite exhibited high adsorption ability than the raw rectorite,and it was found that the removal percentage of MB increased with increasing in adsorbents dose,whereas the adsorption amount qe （mg/g） decreased.The equilibrium was attained within 30 min in adsorption process,and the maximum adsorption capacity of H＋-rectorite for methylene blue reached as high as 37 mg/g.Besides,the effect of temperature on the adsorption of MB with H＋-rectorite was investigated and the equilibrium data were well fitted to Freundlich equations.The H＋-rectorite absorbent saturated with MB can be regenerated by calcinating at 400 °C for 2 h and the regenerated absorbent still showed higher percentage removal of MB.H＋-rectorite clay,which was prepared by modifying the raw rectorite with 10% hydrochloric acid at 60 °C for 24 h,was used as an absorbent for removal of methyl blue （MB） from aqueous solutions.The morphology and the structure and crystallinity of the pristine rectorite and the H＋-rectorite were characterized by scanning electron microscopy （SEM） technique and X-ray diffraction （XRD） technique,respectively.The results showed that the H＋-rectorite exhibited high adsorption ability than the raw rectorite,and it was found that the removal percentage of MB increased with increasing in adsorbents dose,whereas the adsorption amount qe （mg/g） decreased.The equilibrium was attained within 30 min in adsorption process,and the maximum adsorption capacity of H＋-rectorite for methylene blue reached as high as 37 mg/g.Besides,the effect of temperature on the adsorption of MB with H＋-rectorite was investigated and the equilibrium data were well fitted to Freundlich equations.The H＋-rectorite absorbent saturated with MB can be regenerated by calcinating at 400 °C for 2 h and the regenerated absorbent still showed higher percentage removal of MB.
