Since the Second World War, the field of ion exchange has taken a
dominant role in offering solutions to many problems in the
developed and developing world. It has evolved to a wide array of
applications, including mining, microelectronics, drug delivery and
detection, food, fertilizers, chemical cleaning, catalysis,
bioseparation, water management, environmental research and
practices, and energy. The six chapters in this book represent
diverse contributions from researchers around the globe who are
making noticeable strides in the field in currently important
areas: Brackish water desalination Removing boron from water
Sustainable approaches for synthesizing commercially important
epoxide building blocks Solid-phase heavy-metal separation
Separating concentrated ion mixtures in sorption columns Sensing
toxic metals Ion Exchange and Solvent Extraction: A Series of
Advances, Volume 22 provides a focused review of new materials and
new processes that have developed and are rapidly growing. It
describes cutting-edge research and practices in the use of ion
exchange for building a cleaner, sustainable world and provides
thoughtful insights on what ion exchange may do for us in the
future.
This new book explains advanced and emerging technologies for
removing heavy metals from wastestreams and contaminated sites.
Separation processes of this type are critical for meeting
stringent regulations of priority pollutants, especially arsenic,
mercury, and lead, which the text treats in depth. After explaining
the chemistry of heavy metals and their transport in various media,
the work offers a comprehensive analysis of strategies for
separating metals from groundwater, wastewater, contaminated soils,
and industrial sludges. Both the basics and the applications of
techniques such as ion-exchange, specialized sorbents, novel
membranes, advanced precipitates, and electrokinetic processes are
presented with a view to current use and potential for future
applications such as resource reuse. Information in this volume
enables engineers and other investigators to adapt and select the
best means to remove and, in certain instances, recover heavy
metals.
Over the past four decades, notable advancements in the theory and
application of ion exchange science uncovered a wealth of knowledge
that fueled new scientific pursuits and created synergies with
myriad scientific endeavors. Today, pioneers continue to break new
ground by synthesizing novel materials and merging the
interdisciplinary fields of science and engineering. Now in its
20th volume, Ion Exchange and Solvent Extraction: A Series of
Advances chronicles the ongoing changes that drive innovation in
this important field. Beginning with a review of research studies
that show how functionalized ion exchange polymers serve as
supports to stabilize metal nanoparticles (MNPs) without forming
larger than nano aggregates, the book describes the sorption of
different gases from the air by ion exchange resins and fibrous ion
exchangers and discusses the selective ion exchange technology
capable of removing and recovering perchlorate quantitatively
through stable isotope ratio analysis of chlorine and oxygen atoms,
allowing for the forensic analysis of perchlorate origin in
contaminated water. Later chapters demonstrate how numerical
simulations coupled with small-scale bench-top experiments can help
tailor particle size distribution and enhance the efficiency of
each application, review dual-temperature ion exchange processes in
which sorption and desorption are carried out solely by varying
temperature, and present the preparation and characterization of a
new composite material in which microparticles of clinoptilolite
are embedded in a matrix of cross-linked chitosan, opening new
opportunities for the natural biopolymer. The book concludes with
the preparation, characterization, and field-level experience of an
emerging class of "hybrid ion exchangers" that enhance the
application opportunities of ion exchange resins. Highlighting the
latest and most pivotal discoveries, the 20th volume of a field
standard codifies the current state-of-the-art and lays the
groundwork for the next generation of growth and expansion in the
field of ion exchange.

This book provides comprehensive coverage of developments in ion
exchange areas which would continue to have major impacts in the
general pursuit of pollution control and pollution prevention. Its
nine chapters can be split into four different theme areas: trace
contaminants removals; new materials; desalination and finally
controlling gaseous pollutants. This would have value for
practicing engineers, scientists and researchers who are pertaining
to ion exchange technology. It would also server the needs of those
trying to explore and identify new technologies in the areas of
pollution control and pollution prevention.
