The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), surface area and porosity analyzer and micro-electrophoresis were used to determine pore structure and surface property.The pillared diatomite attaining the optimal adsorption densities (qe) of Pb^2+ and Cd^2+ was synthesized with the following conditions: Addition of pillaring solution containing Al3+-oligomers with a concentration range of 0.1-0.2 mol/L to a suspension containing Na+-diatomite to obtain the required Al/diatomite ratio of 10 mmol/g; synthesis temperature of 80 ℃ for 120 min; aging at a temperature of 105 ℃ for 16 h. The adsorption capacities of Pb^2+ and Cd^2+ on pillared diatomite increase by 23.79% and 27.36% compared with natural diatomite, respectively. The surface property of pillared diatomite is more favorable for ion adsorption than natural diatomite. The result suggests that diatomite can be modified by pillaring with polyhydroxyl-aluminum to improve its adsorption properties greatly.展开更多
