Abstract | : | Abstract: An environment is said to be polluted if there have been changes in the environmental order so that it is no longer the same as its original form, as a result of the entry and inclusion of a foreign substance or object in the environmental order. Various cases of heavy metal pollution have been reported in both developed and developing countries, as well as adverse effects on the population living in the vicinity. This heavy metal pollution including cadmium metal. Generally, the contamination of cadmium in waters originates from the waste of the metal ore processing industry. Cadmium which accumulates in the body of living things has a long half-life and generally accumulates in the liver and kidneys. This study focuses on reducing levels of heavy metals in the environment with an adsorbent from natural products, namely palm oil empty fruit bunches and humic acid from peat soils. This research combines two adsorbents of natural products, namely by immobilizing cellulose and humic acid with the epichlorohydrin crosslinker agent. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the optimum dose of epichlorohydrin on cellulose and humic acid immobilization, determine the optimum pH, adsorption isotherm, cadmium metal adsorption kinetics and determine the type of interaction between adsorbent and adsorbate. The results showed a link between cellulose and humic acid which was connected via epichlorohydrin from FT-IR results in certain wavenumbers, including OH vibration (3415cm–1), stretching CH vibration (2903 cm–1), NH bending vibration (1625 cm–1), COO stretch vibration (1373 cm–1) and CO stretch vibration (1058 cm–1). For the optimum dose of epichlorohydrin obtained at 15 mL (1 recipe) with an adsorption capacity of 7.4705 mg/g. While the optimum pH was obtained at pH 6, the adsorption isotherm obtained the largest capacity at 200 ppm by following the Freundlich isotherm (R2 = 0.9512). |
