Abstract.

In the course of researching methods of sampling and monitoring toxic metals (as arsenic ions) in water and wastewaters, we selected the use of sorption for in-depth examination. Among other things, sorption modelling was investigated by the mechanism of surface complexation in order to describe the process or even predict the outcome for the expected rate, and in general, to develop this detection technique for pollutants. This investigation will include the application of goethite mineral as the suitable metal ion sorbent and the use of appropriate computer software. The relative thermodynamic aqueous speciation of the solution, in similar experimental conditions, was also studied.
