Adsorptive Separation of Copper by DION PK208 Ion Exchange Resin

Expanded bed is widening its horizons in continuous operations like adsorption, reaction etc. High density is one of the peculiar characteristics of the adsorbent, desired for using in such operations. So a high density ion exchange resin DION PK208 is selected for in depth understanding in adsorption of copper. Its characterization, equilibrium adsorption, kinetics and thermodynamics of adsorption are reported in this article.
