Abstract :The present study focuses on the effect of experimental parameters (pH, temperature, gel mass, metal concentration, contact time) on the performance of lead adsorption by polyacrylamide hydrogels. The results obtained showed that the retention of Pb2+ ions is closely linked to these parameters. The adsorbent gels equilibrate with the metal solution after 180 minutes, and the maximum adsorption capacity is 442.31 mg/g. In addition, the adsorption obeys the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir isotherm. Desorption of the micropollutant retained by the hydrogel was also studied using 0.1 M of HCl solution. The desorption was rapid, and the efficiency exceeded 90% after a contact time of 90 minutes.Keywords : adsorption, lead, water treatement, hydrogel, polyacrylamide
