Abstract
AbstractChromium(III) sorption on macroporous strong cation exchanger Amberlyst‐15 (H+) was studied as a function of time and temperature. The rate constant values for chromium(III) sorption were calculated both for film and particle diffusion processes. The temperature was found to have a positive effect on both the diffusional processes. From the rate constant values, the energy of activation was calculated using the well‐known Arrhenius equation. The high values of energy of activation confirmed the film diffusional nature of the process. Equilibrium data were explained with the help of Langmuir equation. Various thermodynamic parameters (ΔH⊖, ΔS⊖ and ΔG⊖) from chromium(III) exchange on the resin were calculated. The ΔG⊖ values were found to be negative while both the ΔH⊖ and ΔS⊖ were positive.
