Abstract

Imino diacetamide styrene divinyl benzene (IDAA SDVB) resin was evaluated for the sorption of uranium from sulphuric acid medium. Uranium sorption on to the resin was fast, the kinetic data fitted well in pseudo second order kinetics model. Sorption of uranium was found to increase with the increase in initial concentration of uranium in aqueous feed solution, the sorption isotherm data fitted closely in to Langmuir isotherm model. The sorption of uranium is observed to decrease with the increase in initial feed acidity thereby, allowing sorption and desorption at lower (0.1 M H2SO4) and higher (1.0 M H2SO4) acidities, respectively.
