Resumen : Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic transition metals for living organisms. Thus, effective measures to remediate Cd from water and soils need to be developed. Cd immobilization by alumina and mixtures of alumina and smectite have been analyzed experimentally and theoretically by sorption experiments and sorption modelling, respectively. Removal of aqueous Cd was dependent on pH and Cd concentration, being maximal for pH > 7.5. A two-site non-electrostatic sorption model for Cd sorption on alumina was developed and it successfully reproduced the experimental Cd immobilization on alumina. Cd sorption on mixtures of alumina and smectite were depending on pH, ionic strength, and alumina content in the mixture. Cd removal in mixtures increased with alumina content at high pH and ionic strength values. However, Cd sorption decreased with increasing alumina content under acidic conditions and low ionic strength. This effect was the result of alumina dissolution and the release of Al3+ into the suspension at low pH values. Modelling of Cd sorption on mixtures of alumina and smectite was performed by considering the individual Cd sorption models for alumina and smectite. It could be shown that the contributions of the individual sorption models were additive in the model for the mixtures when the competition of Al3+ with Cd2+ for cation exchange sites in smectite was included.
