The leachability of zinc and copper from natural low-cost sorbents through saturation and
leaching study was examined in order to investigate their possible application as materials for
permeable reactive barrier (PRB). Examined low cost sorbents were natural and iron-modified
zeolite (IMZ), apatite, concentrated apatite, kaolin and raw bentonite. The highest saturation
ability towards zinc and copper was detected with raw bentonite and IMZ. Leaching of zinc and
copper has been confirmed from all saturated sorbents at pH=2.94, while at pH=6.46 was not
detected. This indicates that among investigated sorbents, raw bentonite and IMZ are the most
promising materials for removal of zinc and copper in PRB.
