ABSTRACT Two novel sorbents, obtained as a result of surface modification of silica gel for the Cu(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) removal from aqueous solutions were proposed. For the modification, 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane, N’-hydroxy-N,N-dioctylpyridine-3-carboximidamide and N’-hydroxy-N,N-dioctylpyridine-4-carboximidamides were used. A series of basic tests on the sorption of Cu(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) were carried out and the presented results indicated that the novel sorbents were able to remove all tested metals ions from the aqueous solutions, and the removal efficiency was dependent on the functionalised agent structure, dosage, metal ions concentration and pH. The Langmuir model also assumed that a monolayer sorption occurred.
