Batch experiments were carried out to investigate adsorption behavior of thorium in nitric acid solutions. Adsorption at different concentrations of nitric acid and thorium, influence of contact time and coexisting metal ions, and effect of NO3– were investigated in detail. It was found that at high HNO3 concentrations,the resins exhibited higher adsorption capacity and better affinity towards thorium. The adsorption kinetics could be described by the pseudo-second order model equation, while the adsorption isotherms were well correlated by the Langmuir model. The maximum capacity towards thorium species on SiPyR-N4 was evaluated at 27–28 mg/g-resin. The thermodynamic parameters indicated the adsorption was an exothermic reaction. The presence of NO3– was found to promote the retention of the thorium species.展开更多

The adsorption amount increased with shaking time increasing and the adsorption equilibrium was obtained within 180 rain. Ce(Ⅳ) was partially reduced to Ce(Ⅲ) and the reduction percent of Ce(Ⅳ) increased with shaking time increasing. But RNO3 was more stable than other resins due to the high resistance to oxidation. A little increase of adsorption amount was found with concentration of HNO3 increasing. However, the reduction percent of Ce(Ⅳ) decreased with the increase of HNO3 concentration. The addition of NaNO3 decreased the adsorption amount of Ce(Ⅳ) on RNO3 due to the competitive anion exchange reaction. Ce(Ⅳ) was adsorbed on RNO3 in the form of Ce(Ⅳ) anion nitrato-complex. RNO3 and Ce(Ⅳ)-loaded RNO3 were characterized by fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and thermogravimeric analysis (TGA). Ce(Ⅳ) could be easily separated from RE(Ⅲ) solution by RNO3.展开更多

For comparison, magnetic resin MD-0 without quaternization and non-magnetic resin (D-l) were also synthesized for the adsorption process. It was found that the adsorption was mainly contributed to the chemical interaction between quaternary ammonium groups and reactive blue RXHC. Due to the smaller size, MD- 1 had faster adsorption and desorption kinetics than D-1. Coupled with the advantage of easy separation, the magnetic anion exchange resin was considered to be superior to common anion exchange resin in removal of reactive dye.展开更多

Weakly basic anion exchange resins offer the best ability to remove trace amounts of heavy metals with high selectivity. This paper discusses how weakly basic resins adsorb heavy metals using two different approaches. The removal of mercury, cadmium, and lead ions is based on the fundamental theory of coordination chemistry. The mechanism is not ion exchange but extractive adsorption of heavy metal salts. However, the marked preferential adsorption of chromate by weakly basic anion exchange can be explained using the traditional theory of ion exchange. A lab-scale study produced positive results for the removal of trace amounts of heavy metal ions from drinking water.展开更多

The physicochemical structures of the resulting resins were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and pore size distribution analysis. The adsorption behavior of SZ-1 and SZ-2 for benzenesulfonic acid(BA) was evaluated, and the common commercial weakly basic anion exchanger D301 was also employed for comparison purpose. Adsorption isotherms and influence of solution p H, temperature and coexisting competitive inorganic salts(Na2SO4and Na Cl) on adsorption behavior were investigated and the optimum desorption agent was obtained.Adsorption isotherms of BA were found to be well represented by the Langmuir model.Thermodynamic parameters involving ΔH, ΔG and ΔS were also calculated and the results indicate that adsorption is an exothermic and spontaneous process. Enhanced selectivity of BA sorption over sulfate on the two novel resins was observed by comparison with the commercial anion exchanger D301. The fact that the tested resins loaded with BA can be efficiently regenerated by Na Cl solution indicates the reversible sorption process. From a mechanistic viewpoint, this observation clearly suggests that electrostatic interaction is the predominant adsorption mechanism. Furthermore, results of column tests show that SZ-1possesses a better adsorption property than D301, which reinforces the feasibility of SZ-1for potential industrial application.展开更多
