Abstract

ABSTRACTSeparation of nickel(II) and cadmium(II) ions with use of ion-exchange resins—Amberlyst 15 and Lewatit OC 1026—supported liquid membranes (SLM), polymer inclusion membranes (PIM) and ion-exchange membranes (IM) from sulphate solution has been studied. Di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) was used as the ion-carrier in PIM and SLM separation. It was shown that use of SLM or PIM membranes enables separation of Ni(II)/Cd(II) ions. Experimental results data show that the highest recovery factor values were obtained for supported liquid membranes. The SEM surface and cross-sectional images of SLM support, polymer inclusion membrane and ion-exchange membrane have been also prepared.
