These in- clude （1） Versatic 10/CLXS0 system for the separation of Ni from Ca in sulphate solutions, （2） Versatic 10/4PC system for the separation of Ni and Co from Mn/Mg/Ca in sulphate solutions, （3） Cyanex 471X/HRJ-4277 system for the separation of Zn from Cd in sulphate solutions, （4） Versatic 10/LIX63 system for the separation of Co from Mn/Mg/Ca in sulphate solutions, （5） Versatic 10/LIX63/TBP system for separation of Ni and Co from Mn/Mg/Ca in sulphate solutions, （6） Versatic 10/LIX63 system for the separation of cobalt from nickel in sulphate solutions by difference in kinetics, （7） Cyanex 272/LIX84 system for the separation of Cu/Fe/Zn from Ni/Co in sulphate solutions, （8） Versatic 10/LIX63fFBP system to recover Cu/Ni from strong chloride solutions, and [9） Versatic 10/LIX63 system to separate Cu from Fe in strong chloride solutions. The synergistic effect on metal separation and efficiency is presented and possible industrial applications are demonstrated. The chemical stability of selected SSX systems is also reported.展开更多
In this study, the feasibility of using chitosan, a multifunctional environmentally friendly biopolymer, at different molecular weights to simultaneously adsorb various metal ions from aqueous solutions was evaluated....In this study, the feasibility of using chitosan, a multifunctional environmentally friendly biopolymer, at different molecular weights to simultaneously adsorb various metal ions from aqueous solutions was evaluated. The experiments were carried out to estimate adsorptivity and selectivity of three molecular weights chitosan, 3.60 × 105 （Chl）, 5.97 × 105 （Ch2） and 9.47 × 105 （Ch3） g/mol, towards Cu（II）, Ni（II）, and Pb（II） ions in aqueous solutions. Experimental results indicated that chitosan of high molecular weight （Ch3） was the best at adsorption capacity than the others. On chitosan solutions followed by Ni（II） and then Cu（II）. the other hand, Pb（lI） had the highest adsorption ability in the three展开更多
