Abstract

Presently, micro pollutants which occur in water resources worldwide are the main problematic issues causing hazardous effect on environment and harming human life. Polymeric resins are the effective adsorbents, which have properties like static chemical properties, high porosity and specific adsorbent sites. The new resin Guargum Mandelic Acid Resin (GMA), has been synthesized which is toxic free substance for the treatment of industrial waste water. Guargum Mandelic Acid Resin (GMA) has been used for the adsorption of heavy metal ions like Lead (Pb2+), Copper (Cu2+), Iron (Fe2+), Chromium (Cr²+), Zinc (Zn+²) etc. by batch and column method. The GMA resin was characterized by FTIR and SEM. In laboratory, experiments were performed at different pH range, concentration and time of contact.
