Sumario:A study is made of the removal of metals present in aqueous effluents using a residue of the steelmaking industry denominated rolling mill scale. Mill scale can be considered a cheap material for the removal of toxic metals due to its high content in iron oxides and metallic iron. A study of the removal of Cd2+, Zn2+, Pb2+ y Cu2+ ions from aqueous solutions was made, studying several variables that affect the process. The removal of cadmium, zinc and lead corresponding to a superficial adsorption process, was evaluated using the theories of Langmuir and Freundlich. The removal of copper occurs through a process of oxidationreduction or cementation (Cu2+/Fe). The possibilities of desorption were studied too.
