Abstract
Absorption properties for oxoanions of Se(IV), Se(VI), As(III), As(V), and methyl derivatives of As(V) have been examined by the porous polymer beads loaded with monoclinic hydrous zirconium oxide (Zr-resin). The retention of these ions on the Zr-resin has been analyzed using Langmuir model of adsorption. The equilibrium constants and the capacities for above ions have been determined. The equilibrium constants for monomethyl arsinic acid and dimethyl arsinic acid are similar to that of As(V) but the adsorption capacity depends on the number of methyl groups. As(V) and Se(IV) are effectively retained on the Zr-resin from an aqueous solution of acidic to neutral pH region, whereas As(III) is removed from neutral to alkaline solution. The column system packed with the present Zr-resin can quantitatively remove low levels of As(V) and Se(IV) from aqueous solution.
