Abstract

Este trabajo investiga sobre la eliminación de cobalto(II) presente en medios acuosos mediante la resina de cambio iónico Lewatit TP260. El sistema se estudia bajo distintas condiciones experimentales: velocidad de agitación (300-1400 min-1), temperatura (20-60 ºC), pH del medio acuoso (1-5), dosificacion de la resina (0.07-0.5 g·L-1) y fuerza iónica de la disolución acuosa. El metal se carga en la resina mediante una reacción de intercambio catiónica en un proceso endotérmico y espontáneo. Esta reacción de intercambio se define por un proceso de difusión en la disolución acuosa y el modelo cinético de pseudo-primer orden (20 ºC) y el modelo cinético de pseudo-segundo orden (60 ºC), asimismo los resultados experimentales se ajustan bien a la isoterma de Langmuir. Los resultados experimentales del sistema se han comparado con los obtenidos con otras resinas de intercambio cationico y también con nanotubos de carbono de pared multiple oxidados y sin oxidar. Se estudia la selectividad del sistema Co(II)-Lewatit TP260 con respecto a la presencia de otros cationes (disoluciones binarias Co-metal) en el medio acuoso). El cobalto(II) cargado en la resina se puede fluir con disoluciones ácidas (HCl o H2SO4).

Highlights

  • Cobalt is an element necessary for human life, a biochemical key cobalt-bearing product is vitamin B12 or cyanocobalamin

  • Several resins as well as non-oxidized and oxidized multiwalled carbon nanotubes were tested in order to compare the uptake results with that of Lewatit TP260, whereas the selectivity of the Co(II)-Lewatit TP 260 system was compared against the presence of other cations (Co-metal binary solutions) in the aqueous phase

  • Cobalt distributed in all tissues and liver, kidney and bones, it is responsible for a series of diseases, and based on the animal data, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) had considered that this metal has a great possibility to produce cancer in humans (ATSDR, 2004; Kim et al, 2006; Leyssens et al, 2017)

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Cobalt is an element necessary for human life, a biochemical key cobalt-bearing product is vitamin B12 or cyanocobalamin. Cobalt is normally found as cobalt(II) or Co2+, and the treatment of solutions containing it, included, as recent literature shows, ion exchange, adsorption, solvent extraction and liquid membranes processing (Ashtari and Pourghahramani, 2018; Bozecka et al, 2018; Devi et al, 2018; Farag et al, 2018; Hayati et al, 2018; Kara et al, 2018; Ma et al, 2018; Omelchuk and Chagnes, 2018; Song et al, 2018; Vafaei et al, 2018; Xavier et al, 2018; Yuan et al, 2018; Zherebtsov et al, 2018; Anirudhan et al, 2019; Rodriguez et al, 2019) In this new article of the series (Alguacil et al, 2002; Alguacil, 2002; Alguacil, 2003; Alguacil, 2017a; Alguacil, 2017b; Alguacil, 2018a; Alguacil 2018b; Alguacil and Escudero, 2018; Alguacil 2019a; Alguacil 2019b), the removal of cobalt(II) from aqueous solutions by the use of the cationic exchanger Lewatit TP260 resin is investigated. The elution of this metal from cobalt-loaded resin by different eluants is investigated
