A hollow tubular copper removal adsorbent was prepared with oyster shell and cement as the main raw materials. The effects of different formulas, different initial copper concentrations and different pH values of samples on the copper removal efficiency were investigated to determine the optimal conditions for copper removal. The content of copper in the wastewater is determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The microstructure and elemental composition of the samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and EDS. As a result, the formula with the content of cement to be 8 wt% and the oyster shell powder of 92 wt% is optimal. Under the condition of 30 ℃, when the pH value was 9.0, the Cu2+ adsorption capacity of the sample could reach 0.59 mg/g at 48 h. SEM analysis revealed that there are abundant pores in the sample, which is beneficial for Cu2+ absorption on the adsorbent.
