Copper and zinc desorption from some Iraqi marsh soils

الملخص EN

A laboratory experiment was conducted to study the effect of ionic strength (0.

01 and 0.

1 M), solution temperature (15 and 30oC) and shaking time (1, 24, and 96 hours) on copper and zinc desorption from five Iraqi soil samples.

Results indicated that copper and zinc desorption was increased with increasing time and temperature, while their desorption was decreased with increasing ionic strength.

Results proved the suitability of first order equation and power function equation for copper and zinc desorption from some Iraqi soil samples.
