A number of studies have indicated that the amount of salt taken up by plant tissue corresponds to the external concentration in the manner of a Freundlich adsorption isotherm (for references see 2, 10, 28). The idea that adsorption is involved in uptake seems to be gaining general acceptance at least for the initial phase of uptake (2, 16) despite the fact that the validity of the relation and...

The removal of the chromium (VI) ion from aqueous solutions with the Lewatit FO36 ion-exchange resin is described at different conditions. The effects of adsorbent dose, initial metal concentration, contact time and pH on the removal of chromium (VI) were investigated. The batch ion exchange process was relatively fast and it reached equilibrium after about 90 min of contact. The ion exchange p...

In this study, Aspergillus niger lipase after extraction of medium culture was precipitated with different percentages of acetone and purified by ion exchange chromatography using SP-sepharose HP and Q-sepharose HP. The process of purification of the anzyme was studied by electrophoresis and the molecular weight was detected and determined by Zymography using overlying containing phenol red and...

Competitive association to several components of soil through ion exchange processes influences the fate of organic cations in the environment. To examine these processes, the distributions of aniline and 1-aminonaphthalene between aqueous 5 mM CaCl2 solutions and three different Indiana soils were evaluated. Solute ratios (Sr) of aniline to 1-aminonaphthalene of 0.4-4.7 were employed, and the ...
