Özet
The aim of this study is to investigate the capacity of the clinoptilolite for ammonium nitrogen removal from both synthetic solutions and solid waste leachate. Initially, studies were performed in batch reactors using synthetic ammonia nitrogen solutions, in order to establish the applicability of both kinetic sorption rate models as well as the adsorption isotherm models. Subsequently, column studies were carried out with leachate collections from the field to establish the breakthrough time intervals and concentrations, specifically for ammonia nitrogen.
