Description
Summary:The ion exchange resin Amberlite 958 was used to investigate its behaviour on the removal of hazardous vanadium(V) from aqueous media. This investigation was carried out under various hydrodynamic conditions and chemical conditions, such as variation of the stirring speed, variation of the pH of the aqueous solution, resin dosage, initial vanadium(V) in the aqueous solution, and temperature. Vanadium(V) uptake onto the resin was highly dependent on the pH of the solution, and thus, to the vanadium(V) speciation in this phase; the ion exchange process had an endothermic character. The experimental data, under different experimental conditions, were fitted to various models: kinetics (stirring speed), rate law (vanadium concentration) and model isotherms (resin dosage). Multiwalled carbon nanotubes were also investigated on vanadium(V) removal from the solution. Vanadium(V) loaded onto the resin can be eluted under acidic conditions.
