Sorption behaviour of uranium(VI) with N,N-dibutyl-N'-benzoylthiourea Impregnated in Amberlite XAD-16

The sorption of U(VI) by N, N-dibutyl, N'-benzoylthiourea (DBBT) impregnated resin has been studied. DBBT impregnated resin was prepared by direct adsorption of chelating ligand onto macroporous support, Amberlite XAD-16. The adsorption of DBBT on the macroporous support is shown by FTIR spectroscopy to be the result of only weak chelating ligand-support interactions. Parameters such as the pH effect on the sorption of uranium, the sorption capacity of the impregnated resin, the stripping of uranium and the effect of coexisting ions were investigated by batch experiments. The results demonstrated that uranium(VI) ions, at pH 4.5-7 could be sorbed completely using 0.1 g Amberlite XAD-16 resin loaded with DBBT. The sorption capacity of the impregnated resin is 0.90 mmol uranium(VI) g(-1). Quantitative recovery of U(VI) is achieved by stripping with 0.1 M HNO(3). The method was applied to the determination of uranium in synthetic samples. The precision of the method was 2.4 RSD% in a concentration of 1.20 mug ml(-1) for ten replicate analysis.     

A new sorbent for uranium extraction: ethylenediamino tris(methylenephosphonic) acid grafted on polystyrene resin

A new chelating polymeric sorbent has been developed using polystyrene resin grafted with ethylenediamino tris(methylenephosphonic) acid. After characterisation by FTIR and elementary analysis, the new grafted resin has been investigated in liquid–solid extraction of uranium(VI). The influence of analytical parameters including pH, amount of resin, metal ion concentration, sample volume and ionic strength were investigated on the recovery of U(VI). Adsorption kinetic and isotherm studies were also carried out to understand the nature of the sorption of uranium(VI) by the resin. The total sorption capacity was found to be 41.76 mg/g under optimum conditions. The total desorption of the sorbed uranium ions was successfully performed with 0.1 M ammonium carbonate. Further, the effect of temperature was realized and the thermodynamic parameters were calculated.     

A chelating resin containing 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol as the functional group; synthesis and sorption behavior for trace metal ions

A new polystyrene-divinylbenzene resin containing 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol (TAN) functional group was synthesized and its sorption behavior for 19 metal ions including Zr(IV), Hf(IV) and U(VI) was investigated by batch and column experiments. The chelating resin showed a high sorption affinity for Zr(IV) and Hf(IV) at pH 2. Some parameters affecting the sorption of the metal ions are detailed. The breakthrough and overall capacities were measured under optimized conditions. The overall capacities of Zr(IV) and Hf(IV) that were higher than those of the other metal ions were 0.92 and 0.87 mmol/g, respectively. The elution order of metal ions at pH 4 was evaluated as: Zr(IV)>Hf(IV)>Th(IV)>V(V)>Nb(V)>Cu(II)>U(VI)>Ta(V)>Mo(VI)>Cr(III)>Sn(IV)>W(VI). Quantitative recovery of most metal ions except Zr(IV) was achieved using 2 M HNO₃. Desorption and recovery of Zr(IV) was successfully performed with 2 M HClO₄ and 2 M HCl.     

Adsorption Behavior of Metal Ions by Amidoxime Chelating Resins

In this work, the acrylonitrile (AN) – divinylbenzene (DVB) –methylacrylate (MA) resin was synthesized via suspension polymerization in the presence of toluene as diluent, and benzoylperoxide (BPO) as initiator. The effect of MA, toluene and alkaline treatment on the exchange capacity of the resin were investigated. The results showed that the anion exchange capacity decreased with an increase in the amount of MA, while alkaline treatment had no significant effect. Also, the cation exchange capacity increased with an increase in the amount of hydrophilic agent and reached a maximum point. The sorption equilibrium was achieved relatively fast within 40 mins, and the resin exhibited affinity towards lead (II), copper (II) and in particular uranium (VI). The adsorption of uranium was directly depended up on the pH value. Furthermore, the macroreticular chelating resin, containing amidoxime group had higher adsorption of uranium (VI) in comparison to other metal ions studied. Finally, the alkaline treatment enhanced the potential for much faster adsorption characteristics and the highly porous chelating resin provided a more favorable pore structure for the rapid rate of diffusion of metal ions.

The effect of various electrolytes at different ionic strengths on the K(d) values for Cu(II), Cd(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II) has been studied systematically. Chromatographic separations of copper(II) and nickel(II) from cobalt (II), and of uranium(VI) from chromium(VI) by selective sorption at controlled pH, have been developed. The ion-exchanger can be used for purification of inorganic salts, and analysis of brass and bauxite.

A macroreticular polystyrene-based chelating resin with oxime and diethylamino functional groups has been synthesized. The resin is stable in acid and alkaline solutions; no decrease in nitrogen content or capacity for sorption of copper(II) is observed when it is exposed to 3M hydrochloric acid and 1M sodium hydroxide for 7 days. The resin has higher selectivity for copper(II) than for other metal ions tested and the time required for 50% uptake of copper(II) is 15 min. The highest capacity for copper(II) is 2.0 mmole/g at pH 6.0. In a column operation, quantitative recovery of copper(II) is achieved by elution with 1M hydrochloric acid, and the resin can be used repeatedly.

A solid phase extraction method for the determination of Cu(II), Mn(II) and Zn(II) metal ions in natural water and leafy vegetable samples by ICP-AES was developed. The method was based on the sorption of metal ions onto Amberlite XAD-16 functionalized with a new chelating ligand potassium 2-benzoylhydrazinecarbodithioate (Amberlite XAD-16-PBHCD) and elution with nitric acid. The optimum experimental conditions for the quantitative sorption of the three metal ions, namely, effect of pH, sample volume, flow rate, concentration of eluent, sorption capacity, kinetics of sorption, and the effect of diverse ions on the sorption of analytes have been investigated. All the metal ions were quantitatively retained by the functionalized resin at pH 5.0 and sorbed metals could be eluted with 2.0?M HNO₃. The detection limits were 5.6, 4.5 and 1.8?µg?L^?1 for Cu(II), Mn(II) and Zn(II), respectively. The developed method was applied for the determination of Cu(II), Mn(II) and Zn(II) in water and leafy vegetable samples.

Simultaneous preconcentration of uranium(VI) and thorium(IV) from aqueous solutions using a chelating calix[4]arene anchored chloromethylated polystyrene solid phase

A new chelating polymeric sorbent is developed using Merrifield chloromethylated resin anchored with calix[4]arene-o-vanillinsemicarbazone for simultaneous separation and solid phase extractive preconcentration of U(VI) and Th(IV). The “upper-rim” functionalized calix[4]arene-o-vanillinsemicarbazone was covalently linked to Merrifield resin and characterized by FT-IR and elemental analysis. The synthesized chelating polymeric sorbent shows superior binding affinity towards U(VI) and Th(IV) under selective pH conditions. Various physico-chemical parameters that influence the quantitative extraction of metal ions were optimized. The optimum pH range and flow rates for U(VI) and Th(IV) were 6.0-7.0 and 1.0-4.0 ml min⁻¹ and 3.5-4.5 and 1.5-4.0 ml min⁻¹, respectively. The total sorption capacity found for U(VI) and Th(IV) was 48734 and 41175 μg g⁻¹, respectively. Interference studies carried out in the presence of diverse ions and electrolyte species showed quantitative analyte recovery (98-98.5%) with lower limits of detection, 6.14 and 4.29 μg l⁻¹ and high preconcentration factors, 143 and 153 for U(VI) and Th(IV), respectively. The uptake and stripping of these metal ions on the resin were fast, indicating a better accessibility of the metal ions towards the chelating sites. The analytical applicability of the synthesized polymeric sorbent was tested with some synthetic mixtures for the separation of U(VI) and Th(IV) from each other and also from La(III), Cu(II) and Pb(II) by varying the pH and sequential acidic elution. The validity of the proposed method was checked by analyzing these metal ions in natural water samples, monazite sand and standard geological materials.

Two new stable chelating resins have been synthesized incorporating the imidazolylazobenzene and 1,4-bis(imidazolylazo)benzene as functional group into Merrifield polymer through CN covalent bond and characterized by elemental analyses, IR and thermal study. A comparison of sorption capacity of newly formed resins towards the cations Ag(I), Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Hg(II) and Pb(II) as a function of pH has been studied. Kinetic studies show the time for the completeness of metal ion saturation with the resin phase. Cd(II) in trace quantities has been successfully separated and determined in different biological samples and Zn(II) in medicinal samples. It is also found that Cd(II) can be removed from water at usual pH of natural water. Both the resins can be employed for water purification as the resins reveal sorption ability towards toxic metal ions and exhibit no affinity to alkali or alkaline earth metal ions.

A new chelating polymeric sorbent was developed by functionalizing Amberlite XAD-16 with 1,3-dimethyl-3-aminopropan-1-ol via a simple condensation mechanism. The newly developed chelating matrix offered a high resin capacity and faster sorption kinetics for the metal ions such as Mn(II), Pb(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Zn(II). Various physio-chemical parameters like pH-effect, kinetics, eluant volume and flow rate, sample breakthrough volume, matrix interference effect on the metal ion sorption have been studied. The optimum pH range for the sorption of the above mentioned metal ions were 6.0–7.5, 6.0–7.0, 8.0–8.5, 7.0–7.5, 6.5–7.5, 7.5–8.5 and 6.5–7.0, respectively. The resin capacities for Mn(II), Pb(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Zn(II) were found to be 0.62, 0.23, 0.55, 0.27, 0.46, 0.21 and 0.25 mmol g⁻¹ of the resin, respectively. The lower limit of detection was 10 ng ml⁻¹ for Cd(II), 40 ng ml⁻¹ for Mn(II) and Zn(II), 32 ng ml⁻¹ for Ni(II), 25 ng ml⁻¹ for Cu(II) and Co(II) and 20 ng ml⁻¹ for Pb(II). A high preconcentration value of 300 in the case of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II),Cd(II) and a value of 500 and 250 for Pb(II) and Zn(II), respectively, were achieved. A recovery of >98% was obtained for all the metal ions with 4 M HCl as eluting agent except in the case of Cu(II) where in 6 M HCl was necessary. The chelating polymer showed low sorption behavior to alkali and alkaline earth metals and also to various inorganic anionic species present in saline matrix. The method was applied for metal ion determination from water samples like seawater, well water and tap water and also from green leafy vegetable, from certified multivitamin tablets and steel samples.
