Abstract
Optimum conditions of the dynamic concentration of copper(II) and silver(I) ions simultaneously present in a solution with N-(2-sulfoethyl)chitosan with a degree of modification equal to 0.5 and different degrees of crosslinking by glutaraldehyde are determined. The values of coefficients of selectivity K Ag/Cu are determined under dynamic conditions. It is shown that the selectivity of the sorption of silver(I) increases (compared to copper(II)) as the degree of crosslinking of sorbents based on N-(2-sulfoethyl)chitosan is raised. Mathematical treatment of the obtained dynamic curves is performed according to the Thomas, Adams–Bohart, and Yoon and Nelson models. As a result, the values of dynamic capacity of sorbents, the rate constant of the reaction, and the release time of 50% of the sorbate are determined. The quantitative desorption of copper and silver from the surface of sorbents is achieved by using 1 mol/dm3 solution of nitric acid.
