Abstract:

Chelating resins have been widely used for separating and treating wastewater which contains heavy metal ions. The different factors affecting the metal ions adsorption of the chelating resin, such as solution pH, contact time and relation solid/ liquid were studied in batch method, using a commercial resin, Dowex M-4195 for the adsorption of cadmium, copper and zinc. The chelating resin showed a significant uptake performance towards Cu(II), Cd (II), Zn(II) ions. The sorption capacity was found to be Cu 25.06, Cd = 12.28, Zn 14.60 mg/g. The equilibrium data were analyzed using the Langmuir isotherm model. The kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the adsorption process were estimated. These data indicated that the adsorption process is spontaneous.
