The objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the ion exchange characteristics of five types of Zeolite(Zeolite-A, 13X, Y, Mordenite, Chabazite) for effective removal of Cs, Sr and Co ions in water solution at low concentration(0.01 N and 0.005 N). Total ion exchange capacity and equilibrium isotherm are measured, and free-energy change(${\Delta}G^0$) and enthalpy change(${\Delta}H^0$) in ion exchange reaction are calculated from experimental results. In addition the ion exchange equilibrium in the three-component system for three types of zeolite showing better efficiency is measured and plotted in triangle coordinates. It is shown from experimental results that the magnitude of free-energy change increases with the increasing ion selectivity, and the difference of free energy change between ions correlates closely with that of ion selectivity. The results also shows that Chabazite is effective for the adsorption of Cs ion, and Zeolite-A and Zeolite-13X for that of Sr and Co ions.

Although chemical sedimentation and ion exchange are usually applied to the treatment of heavy metal ions and radioactive cations, they have some serious disadvantages like a great consumption of chemicals, the disposal of valuable metals, and the secondary pollution of soil by the solid-waste. The advanced countries recently have studied the electrochemical ion exchange, combined electrochemical reduction and ion exchange, for the development of the alternative technique. This study has been performed to investigate the optimum condition for the preparation of the nickel hexacyanoferrate (NiHCNFe) which is an electrochemical ion exchanger. NiHCNFe film was deposited on the surface of nickel plate by chemical method or electrochemical method. The morphology and composition of NiHCNFe were observed by SEM and EDS, respectively. The peak current density of NiHCNFe was measured from the cyclic voltammograms of the continuous oxidation-reduction reaction in a parallel plane ion exchange electrode reactor. It was found that the chemical preparation method was better than the electrochemical method. The concentrated NiHCNFe was apparently deposited on nickel plate when dipping in the preparing solution for 118 h, especially. It also had a best durable performance as an ion exchange electrode.

Heterogeneous cation exchange membrane(HCEM) was prepared with LLDPE(Linear Low Density Poly-ethylene) as binder, powdered cation exchange resins($diameter{\leq}149{\mu}m$) as ion-exchange material and glycerol as additive for electrodialysis and electrodeionization system. The weight ratio of (binder/ion exchange)/glycerol was (60%/40%)/5%, (55%/45%)/5%, (50%/50%)/5% and (40%/60%)/5%. The characterization of prepared HCEM was evaluated on mechanical, electrochemical, morphology and ion permeable properties. It was compared with commercial membrane. Electrochemical properties of HCEM of (50%/50% )/5% were very similar to value of IONPURE(commercial membrane), in which ion exchange capacity, ion transfer number and membrane resistance were to be 1.733meq/g, 0.96 and $16.08{\Omega}/cm^2$, respectively. Ion permeability of the membrane was better than that of IONPURE membrane. Compared with IONPURE membrane, the HCEM had a higher tensile strength and lower elongation and modulus, in which HCEM had tensile strength of $62.33kg/cm^2$, elongation of 87.42% and modulus of $658.53kg/cm^2$. The HCEM of (50%/50% )15% was optimum combination.

본 연구에서는 NaCl 용응법에 의해 fly ash로부터 합성된 swelling mica의 다양한 이온의 교환특성과 이온교환이 결정구조에 미치는 영향을 규명함으로서 swelling mica에 의한 유해 방사능 물질 및 중금속의 효과적인 제거제로서의 활용 가능성을 조사하고자 하였다. 1가 양이온이 흡착된 FA-swelling mica의 $d_{001}$/ peak의 강도는 흡착된 이온의 직경이 클수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으나, $d_{001}$/ value는 흡착된 이온의 직경과 뚜렷한 상관관계가 없었다. 또한 FA-swelling mica의 NH4 이온의 흡착량은 133 $cmol^{+}$/kg, K 이온은 127 $cmol^{+}$/kg, Li 이온은 23 $cmol^{+}$/kg으로서 방사성 물질과 중금속 이온에 비해 낮은 경향을 나타내었다. 2가 양이온이 흡착된 FA-swelling mica의 $d_{001}$/ peak 강도와 $d_{001}$/ value는 이온의 직경에 관계없이 비슷한 값을 나타내었으며 1가 양이온의 흡착에 비해 구조적 안정성이 높았다. Sr 및 Ba 이온의 흡착반응은 느리고 지속적으로 일어났으며 Ca와 Mg 같은 2가 양이온에 비해 선택성이 훨씬 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 Sr 및 Ba 이온과 같이 직경이 큰 방사성 원소들은 swelling mica의 층간에 흡착되어 결정구조가 부분적으로 붕괴됨으로서 이온을 비가역적으로 고정하는 특성을 나타내었다. Zn, Cu, Cd 및 Pb 등의 중금속 이온이 흡착된 FA-swelling mica의 $d_{001}$/ value는 12.70~12.80$\AA$으로서 매우 일정하였으며, 이온 흡착에 의한 층간 팽창정도는 이온의 크기뿐만 아니라 수화정도에 따라 상이하였다. FA-swelling mica의 중금속 이온의 흡착은 층간 붕괴에 의해 일어나는 것으로 판단되며, 선택성과 흡착능력은 층간 붕괴속도와 비례하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 FA-swelling mica의 중금속 이온의 선택성은 Pb>Cu>Cd$\geq$Zn 순으로 나타났다.

The effect of a rapid freeze pretreatment of organic ion exchange resins on their grinding properties was studied. It was found that the structure of ion exchange resins was defected by freezing pressure formed in the process of rapid freezing. The defected resins didn't recover their own structure after thawing and those could be easy to be broken at room temperature by small force. Therefore, organic ion exchange resins could be ground readily at room temperature after rapid-freezing the fully swelled resins using by solid carbon dioxide, or liquid nitrogen. The rapid freeze pretreatment of cation exchange resins was very effective on grinding in particular. However, the effect of the pretreatment of anion exchange resins on grinding was less than that of cation exchange resins. In case of anion exchange resins, the ionic form of affected the grindability remarkably.

Durch Umsetzung von vernetzten p-jodstyrolhaltigen Coplymeren mit benzolischer Butyllithiumlosung und durch anschließende Carboxylierung mit gasformigem Kohlendioxid lassen sich p-carboxystyrolhaltige Copolymere herstellen. Die erreichbare Kapazitat der erhaltenen Harze betragt etwa 2,5 bis 2,8 mval/g. Aus den Titrations-nskurven erhahlt man einen scheinbaren $pK_a$-Wert von 8,07 fur das normal hergestellte und von 7,75 fur das toluolmodifizierte Harz. Der Austauscher nimmt Kaliumoinen im alkalischen Gebiet auf. Das Gleichgewicht des Harzes mit Calciumionen stellt sich bei pH = 6 bei ca. 85% Austausch ein. Dagegen nimmt das Harz Kupferionen bei pH = 4 bis 5 in der Außenlosung bis zu 100% auf.

A characteristic study of chlorine dioxide generation by the electrolysis system was performed after chlorite ($ClO_2^-$) is adsorbed from sodium chlorite by a polymer ion exchange resin. A strongly basic anion exchange resin was used and a Ti plate coated with Ru and Ir was used as an electrode. Various parameters such as reaction stirring velocity, reaction temperature, chlorine dioxide product concentration, ion exchange resin content and product maker type for the adsorption quantity in the chlorite adsorption of ion exchange resin were investigated and found the ion exchange resin with the maximum adsorption quantity. A generation trend of chlorine dioxide was observed by the electrolysis system and optimum conditions on the desired value were found using response surface design of DOE (Design of Experiments). The strongly basic anion exchange resin with the maximum adsorption quantity was SAR-20 (TRILITE Gel type II) and the adsorption quantity was around 110 mg/IER (g). Observed generation optimum conditions of chlorine dioxide were constant-current (electrode area base; $A/dm^2$) and flow rate of $N_2$ gas (4.7 L/min) at the desired value of sterilization (900~1000 ppm, 1 h).

$NH_4{^+}-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-alumina which is expected to an inorganic solid electrolyte of high temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) was prepared by ion-exchange reaction of $K^{+}-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-alumina pellet with $NH_4NO_3$ aqueous solution and molten $NH_4NO_3$ salts as an ion-exchange medium in the autoclave and the heating mentle reaction. In the autoclave reaction, the concentrations of $NH_4NO_3$ solution was chosen at 5 and 10 M. Each ion-exchange reaction was carried out at 130, 150, 170, and $200^{\circ}C$ for 2, 4, 6 and 8 h. In the heating mentle reaction, ion-exchange was performed at $200^{\circ}C$ for 2, 4, 6 and 8 h with molten $NH_4NO_3$ salts. In order to determine the effect of reaction times, each ion-exchange reaction was repeated 3 times. The phase stability and the ion-exchange rate of $NH_4{^+}-{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-alumina were analyzed by XRD and ICP.

Methods to separate 14 rare earth elements (REEs) and yttrium by the $AG^{(R)}$ 50W-X8 cation exchange resin, and to determine REEs by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrophotometry (ICP-AES) were described. Ion exchange capacities of REEs on the resin were so high that the REEs were quantitatively ion exchanged under the flow rate of 0.3~1.0 mL/min at pH 1~6. The breakthrough capacity curve of the REEs showed that ion exchange capacities of light REEs (Cerium group) were greater than that of the heavy REEs (Yttrium group). When $200{\mu}g$ of each REEs was ion exchanged on 100 mg of resin, most of the heavy REEs were quantitatively desorbed with 10 mL of 2.0 M of $HNO_3$, while most of the light REEs with 30 mL. The method was applied to the monazite sample. The REEs could be separated from matrix, since ion exchange capacities of matrix ions of Ca, Ti, Mg, Mn were much lower than that of the REEs. However the relative standard deviations of the analytical results by the present method were not improved, as high as 1~5%.
