Abstract: The potential use of treated solid by-product of oil shale to treat aqueous solutions containing several heavy metals, i.e., Cd(II), Cu(II), Cr(III), Ni(III), Pb(II) and Zn(II), was explored. Different experimental approaches including equilibrium batch mode experiments and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) were used to explore the feasibility of this material as a cheap adsorbent for the removal of these heavy metals from predetermined solutions. Results indicate that the solid by-product of oil shale removes Cd(II), Cu(II), Ni(II), and Pb(II), from aqueous solutions by adsorption, but did not remove the other heavy metals investigated in this study.
