In detail, this study analysed the kinetics of ammonium ion adsorption under dynamic conditions in the "clinoptilolite -ammonium ion" system. The work includes constructing a mathematical model of this process, which allows us to estimate and predict its essential characteristics. Calculations of mass transfer coefficients revealed their dependence on the intensity of medium mixing. A significant result is that ion exchange occurs in externally diffusion and intradiffusion regions. Ion exchange rate constants were calculated for the regions of external and internal diffusion, contributing to a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of this complex process. The research results will expand our knowledge about ion exchange interactions in the " clinoptilolite -ammonium ion" system. In addition, they can be used to optimise the conditions of ammonium adsorption in similar systems, which is essential for practical applications related to water purification and other media from ammonium ions.
