Herein, we report on the fabrication of a device for removing cations of an anti-analyte ion contained in a sample and an eluent under an electric field. The space in which the electrode is set on both sides of the device is separated into three cells using anion and cation exchange membranes. Each of the cells is packed with either an anion or cation exchange resin. Cation removal is perfor...

This paper reports on a new suppressor that can be used in the ion chromatography (IC) of inorganic cations. The space in which the electrode is set on both sides of the device is separated into three cells using anion- and cation-exchange membranes. Each of the cells is packed with either an anion- or cation-exchange resin. Anions in the eluent and injected sample are removed by electrical reg...

Ion chromatography (IC) developed by Small et al . [1] is widely recognized as a simple, powerful and convenient analytical technique for the determination of various low−molecular−weight ionic compounds [2, 3]. Firstly, IC with conductimetric detection (IC−CD) was mainly applied for the determination of inorganic anions. This is because a lightly sulfonated styrene−divinylbenzene co−polymer (S...

The extraction of chromium(III) from a model waste solution and also from a waste solution of an Indian tannery with Amberlite IR 120 resin is described, and the performance of this resin is compared with other similar resins. The parameters that were optimized include effect of mixing time, pH, loading and elution behaviours of chromium(III) for this resin. Sorption of chromium(III) on Amberli...

Ion exchange has a great potential to remove heavy metals from industrial wastewaters or heavy metal-containing sludge. In order to design and operate heavy metal removal processes, the equilibrium relationship between ions and resin must be known a prior. A series of ion-exchange equilibrium tests of Cu/H, Zn/H, and Cd/H systems using Amberlite IR-120 were performed. The equilibrium data were ...
