Bücher der Reihe Ion Exchange and Solvent Extraction Series

Presents advances and results in solvent extraction. This title contains nearly 800 helpful drawings, tables, equations and bibliographic citations.

Containing knowledge and results in ion exchange, this text presents an overview of the chemical thermodynamics of cation-exchange reactions, with emphasis placed on liquid-phase- and solid-phase-activity coefficient models. It describes the development of surface complexation theory and its application to the ion exchange phenomenon.

Treats ion exchange and solvent extraction as discrete topics and as a unified, multidisciplinary study - presenting various insights for researchers in many chemical and related fields. This work covers the nature of metal-ion interaction with oppositely charged sites of ion exchangers and the kinetics of ion exchange in heterogenous systems.

Over the past four decades, many scientists have made notable advancements in both the theory and application of ion exchange. Pioneers continue to break new ground by synthesizing novel materials and creating interdisciplinary connections across science and engineering. The seven chapters assembled in this latest volume reflect contributions from researchers across the globe. This volume testifies to the growth in the field and the synergies it has created with a myriad of scientific endeavors, from decontamination to deionization, mining to microelectronics, drug delivery to desalination, and more.
