| Abstract: | Adsorption of glycine and alanine on montmorillonite and on Ca2+- and Mg2+- exchanged montmorillonite clay over a range of pH (4.0-9.0) and temperature (20-35oC) under possible abiotic conditions have been investigated UV-spectrophotometrically. Adsorption of both the amino acids was considerable on all the three adsorbents used. Maximum adsorption was observed at 25o C and neutral pH. Ca2+-montmorillonite exhibited relatively better adsorption as compared to Mg2+-exchanged form or montmorillonite. The values of KL and Xm were determined using Langmuir isotherm characteristics. |
