sorption and separation of metals from aqueous solution by a macromolecular resin containing tri-n-octylamine

Abstract

Experiments were conducted on the equilibrium distribution of divalent zinc between hydrochloric acid medium and macromolecular resin containing tri-n-octylamine (TOA) as an active component. The sorption of zinc on the impregnated sorbent can be expressed by the following stoichiometric relation: ZnCl2(aq.) + 2R3NHCl(v.)
