Abstract

A comparative study of the adsorbability of Cd(II), Ni(II), Mn(II), Ga(III), La(III), Mo(VI) and bromide from aqueous acetic acid solutions on' Dowex 1-X8, 100–200 mesh, in the acetate and chloride forms, proved that chloride ions are indispensable for high adsorption from concentrated acetic acid solutions. A study of the adsorption isotherms of Ni(II), Mn(II) and Cd(II) on the acetate-form resin from acetic acid-hydrochloric acid solutions, showed that these elements form anionic complexes. The K d values on RCl-exchanger, for a given acetic acid concentration, were highly dependent on the total exchange capacity of the resin. A simplified anion-exchange separation procedure in aqueous acetic acid was developed, with an adsorption step from a mixture of acetic and hydrochloric acids.
