Developmet the Complex Technology for Highly Concentrated Acid Solutions of Electroplating Industry by IVANENKO Olena, DOVHOLAP Sergii, NOSACHOVA Yuliia, PLASHYKHIN Sergii, PAVLIUK Nonna, SKLADANNYY Denys

“…In the course of experimental studies, it was shown that with an increase in the concentration of sulfuric acid, the total exchangeable dynamic capacity (TEDC) of the cationite significantly decreases both during the sorption of iron ions and during the sorption of copper ions. At the same time, an increase in the iron (II) ions concentration leads to a significant increase in TEDC – even with a sulfuric acid concentration of 8–13 g/dm3, TEDC reached the level of 1.35 g-eq/dm3, which corresponds to the sorption level of neutral dilute solutions. …”

“…According to the Pitzer ion-interaction equation of the apparent molar volume model, the Pitzer single-salt parameters (βM,X0υ, βM,X1υ, βM,X2υ, and CM,Xυ, MX = NaAsO2) and their temperature-dependent correlation F(i, p, T) = a1 + a2ln (T/298.15) + a3(T − 298.15) + a4/(620 − T) + a5/(T − 227) (where T is temperature in Kelvin and ai are the correlation coefficients) for NaAsO2 were obtained for the first time. The predictive apparent molar volumes agree well with the experimental values, and those results indicated that the single-salt parameters and the temperature-dependent formula are reliable.…”
