SIMULATION OF ION EXCHANGE INTERACTION KINETICS IN THE CLINOPTYLOLITE - AMMONIUM ION SYSTEM

The kinetics of adsorption of ammonium ions under dynamic conditions has been studied. A mathematical model of the process was built. The mass transfer coefficient was calculated depending on the intensity of the change of location. It was established that ion exchange occurs in external and internal diffusion regions. The rate constants of ion exchange for the region of external and internal diffusion were calculated.

Development of low waste technology of water purification from copper ions

The results of the water stabilization treatment studies to feed the cooling water circulation systems by ion exchange method are reported. The processes of the water softener on strongly and weakly acidic cation resins in the presence of copper ions are studied. The relation of the water purification efficiency from copper and its softening depending on the form of the ion-exchanger and water consumption was determined.
