Adsorption of heavy metal ions on pyrrhotite

• Relatively large amounts of heay metal ions can be adsorbed on synthetic and natural pyrrhotite. The best result was obtained with Cu ions and pyrrhotite from Viscaria, with an adsorption of 4. 95 g Cu per kilogram of pyrrhotite. Good results have also been obtained with zinc and lead ions. A strongly oxidizing environment can have an adverse effect.
