Removal of Co(Ⅱ) from aqueous solutions by NKC-9 strong acid resin

A strong acidic ion exchange resin(NKC-9)was used as a new adsorbent material for the removal of Co(Ⅱ)from aqueous solutions.The adsorption isotherm follows the Langmuir model.The maximum adsorption capacity of the resin for Co(Ⅱ)is evaluated to be 361.0 mg/g by the Langmuir model.It is found that 0.5 mol/L HCl solution provides effectiveness of the desorption of Co(Ⅱ)from the resin.The adsorption rate constants determined at 288,298 and 308 K are 7.12×10-5,8.51×10-5and 9.85×10-5s-1, respectively.The apparent activation energy(Ea)is 12.0 kJ/mol and the adsorption parameters of thermodynamic are-H Θ=16.1 kJ/mol,-SΘ=163.4 J/(mol·K),-G Θ 298 K=-32.6 kJ/mol,respectively.The adsorption of Co(Ⅱ)on the resin is found to be endothermic in nature.Column experiments show that it is possible to remove Co(Ⅱ)ions from aqueous medium dynamically by NKC-9 resin.

The analysis of seven aliphatic carboxylic acids(formic,acetic,propionic,iso-butyric,n-butyric,iso-valeric and n-valeric acid) in anaerobic digestion process waters for biogas production was examined by ion-exclusion chromatography with dilute acidic eluents(benzoic acid,perfluorobutyric acid(PFBA) and sulfuric acid) and non-suppressed conductivity/ultraviolet(UV) detection.The columns used were a styrene/divinylbenzene-based strongly acidic cation-exchange resin column(TSKgel SCX) and a polymethacrylate-based weakly acidic cation-exchange resin column(TSKgel Super IC-A/C).Good separation was performed on the TSKgel SCX in shorter retention times.For the TSKgel Super IC-A/C,peak shape of the acids was sharp and symmetrical in spite of longer retention times.In addition,the mutual separation of the acids was good except for iso-and n-butyric acids.The better separation and good detection was achieved by using the two columns(TSKgel SCX and TSKgel Super IC-A/C connected in series),lower concentrations of PFBA and sulfuric acid as eluents,non-suppressed conductivity detection and UV detection at 210 nm.This analysis was applied to anaerobic digestion process waters.The chromatograms with conductivity detection were relatively simpler compared with those of UV detection.The use of two columns with different selectivities for the aliphatic carboxylic acids and the two detection modes was effective for the determination and identification of the analytes in anaerobic digestion process waters containing complex matrices.
