Separation of indium (Ⅲ), gallium (Ⅲ), and zinc (Ⅱ) with Levextrel resin containing di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (CL-P204): Part I. Selection of separation conditions

A kind of Levextrel resin separation process was developed for separation of indium (Ⅲ), gallium (Ⅲ), and zinc (Ⅱ) from aqueous sulfate solution with Levextrel resin containing di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (CL-P204). The aim of the research is to collect preliminary results for a pilot-scale production. Properties of adsorbing indium (Ⅲ), gallium (Ⅲ), and zinc (Ⅱ) from sulfate solution with the Levextrel resin were first studied by batch operation and column operation. The optimum pH, adsorption capacities and concentrations of stripping agents for indium (Ⅲ), gallium (Ⅲ) were tested. The separation order of indium (Ⅲ), gallium (Ⅲ), and zinc (Ⅱ) from sulfate solution with CL-P204 Levextrel resin was found that indium (Ⅲ) could be first separated by adsorbing at the acidity of 1.0 mol/L whereas gallium (Ⅲ) and zinc (Ⅱ) could not, and they were adsorbed together by adsorbing at pH = 2.8, then separated from each other by stripping with 0.1 and 0.5 mol/L hydrochloric acid, respectively.

Separation of indium(Ⅲ),gallium(Ⅲ),and zinc(Ⅱ) with Levextrel resin containing di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (CL-P204):Part Ⅱ.Mechanism and kinetics of adsorbing indium(Ⅲ)

The mechanism of adsorbing indium(Ⅲ) from sulfate solutions with CL-P204 Levextrel resin containing di(-2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid was examined by batch operation and infrared spectra. The results showed that the P204 adsorbed on the resin behaved in the similar way to solvent extraction except that it was as a monomer in resin adsorbing but in dimeric form in solvent extraction. Three factors including temperature, indium(Ⅲ) concentration of solution, and the size of resin particles which influence the In3 /H exchange on CL-P204 Levextrel resin were investigated by the modified limited batch technique in order to determine the kinetics of In3 /H exchange. It was found that the rate of ion exchange increased with the temperature and the concentration of solution increasing and with the size of the resin particles decreasing. According to the expression developed by Boyd et al, the controlling factor of In3 /H exchange on CL-P204 Levextrel resin was the diffusion through the resin particles. The     

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.

Comparative study on biosorption of Pb(Ⅱ) and Cr(Ⅵ) by Synechococcus sp.

The comparative study on adsorptions of Pb(Ⅱ) and Cr(Ⅵ) ions by free cells and immobilized cells of Synechococcus sp.was performed,in which different aspects including Zeta potential of the cells,the influence of pH,temperature and initial concentration of metal ions,as well as adsorption kinetics and mechanism were referred.The lyophilized free cells have a surface isoelectric point at pH 3,and the correlative experiment indicates that there is an electrostatic adsorption feature of Cr(Ⅵ) and Pb(Ⅱ).The immobilization of the free cells by Ca-alginate does not significantly modify the adsorption features of the biosorbent.The absorption processes of Cr(Ⅵ) and Pb(Ⅱ) on both free and immobilized cells are apparently affected by pH and the initial concentration of metal ions in the bulk solution,but are much weakly affected by temperature in the test range of 10-50 ℃.The slow course of biosorption follows the first order kinetic model,the adsorption of Pb(Ⅱ) obeys both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models,while the adsorption of Cr(Ⅵ) obeys only Freundlich model.FT-IR results indicate that carboxylic,alcoholic,amide and amino groups are responsible for the binding of the metal ions,and reduction of Cr(Ⅵ) to Cr(Ⅲ) takes place after Cr(Ⅵ) adsorbs electrostatically onto the surface of the biosorbents.
