The nano composite, polyaniline antimony tin tungstate in the H+ form was synthesized by a simple general method. EDS and ICP- AES methods were used to find the chemical constitution of the material. Further characterizations were done by TGA, XRD analysis, FTIR Spectroscopic analysis, UV-Visible DRS studies to find the optical properties, SEM for finding surface morphology, etc. Size determination using XRD peaks and TEM images confirmed its nano size. Investigation on ion exchange capacity and distribution coefficients for many metal ions revealed the ion exchange character. The composite exhibited differential selectivity forheavy metal ions such as PbII, ThIV, HgIV, etc. which are important in environmental applications like separation and treatment of polluted water from these metal ions. The electrical properties studied by Four–probe method revealed a high conductivity of 0.42 S/cm at room temperature and it decreases with an increase in temperature. These results suggest various applications of this nano compositein optoelectronics.

The equilibrium sorption of uni-univalent electrolytes (NaCl, KCl) in heterogeneous cation exchange membranes with various contents of the ion exchange component and in ion exchange membranes Ralex was investigated. Using experimental data which express the concentration dependence of equilibrium sorption, validity of the Donnan relation for the systems under investigation was tested and values of the Glueckauf inhomogeneity factor for Ralex membranes were determined. Determination of the equilibrium sorption allows the effect of the total content of internal water and of the ion-exchange capacity on the distribution coefficients of the electrolyte to be determined.

<p>Sorption parameters of natural zeolite-containing tripolite from the Khotynetsky deposit (Russia, Oryol region) were studied in a series of experiments to evaluate possibility of its usage as a geochemical barrier for teсhnogenic Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup> contaminating soils and ground waters. <br>Firstly, the tripolite total ion-exchange capacity was established by its saturation with ammonium ion and evaluating its content in the initial and ammonium forms with the help of X-ray fluorescence method. Secondly, the kinetic characteristics, namely the time necessary to reach the equilibrium state of the rock-water system containing Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup> ions were determined in batch experiments using the method of "limited volume". The latter experiment was conducted using 0.5 g tripolite with 250 ml model solutions simulating natural river water (0.003 н CaCl<sub>2</sub>) and filtration water from solid domestic waste landfill (0.06 н CaCl<sub>2</sub>) and containing  2 mg/l Ni<sup>2+</sup> and  Zn<sup>2+</sup>. The time of contact between the sorbent and the model solution varied from 2 hours to 21 days. Thirdly, basing on reference data on the real content of heavy metals in the filtrates of various landfills, an experiment on determination of the tripolite equilibrium exchange (and adsorption) capacity was carried out. The prepared model solutions in the latter experiment contained 2, 5, 7 and 10 mg/l of Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup>. The amount of Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+  </sup>in solutions was determined by the ICP-AES.<br>According to the obtained results, the total ion-exchange capacity of the natural tripolite equaled to 1.18 mg-eq/g. The sorption isotherms based on kinetic experiments showed that equilibrium in the studied rock-solution system took place after 200 to 500 hours of interaction. Despite natural scattering of experimental points in the range of the used Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup> concentrations in the third experiment which lasted 21 days, the sorption of the studied ions by the natural tripolite can be approximated by a linear isotherm, zinc being sorbed much better than nickel. The average values of distribution coefficients (Kd) obtained for 0.003 n CaCl<sub>2</sub> aquatic solution equaled to 2.7*103 ml/g for Ni<sup>2+</sup> and 6.7*103 ml/g for Zn<sup>2+</sup>.<br>Therefore, natural tripolite of the Khotinetsky deposit may well be used as a natural geochemical barrier for extraction of technogenic Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup> from natural waters draining landfills and contaminated by these ions.</p><p> </p>

The modification of peroxotitanate using hydrogen peroxide significantly improved the ion-exchange capacity of titanate materials as sorbents for metal ions contained in a radioactive waste simulant solution. The effects of hydrogen peroxide content (hydrogen peroxide/titanium isopropoxide molar ratios, hereafter expressed as H/T) on the properties of as-prepared titanate synthesized at 130°C and at pH of 6-7, followed by freeze-drying, were investigated. The peroxotitanate materials thus obtained were characterized by XRD, BET, SEM, TEM, EDX, ICP, and Raman spectroscopy. At an H/T ratio of 2, peroxotitanate predominantly exhibited an amorphous structure, with a clearly observed tubular or fibrous structure. Furthermore, peroxotitanate modified at an H/T ratio of 2 exhibited the best ion-exchange capacity of 191 mg g−1 for metal ions contained in a radioactive waste simulant solution. Hence, these peroxotitanate materials are suitable for removing metal ions from wastewater, especially lanthanide ions (Ln3+) and Sr2+.

In this study, sulfonated polyvinyl alcohol/phosphomolybdic acid composite cation exchange membrane was prepared by solution casting method. Some of the ionb exchange peroperties such as ion exchange capacity for alkali and alkali metal ions, effect of temperature on ion exchange capacity, elution behavior, effect of eluent concentration, distribution coefficient were studied. On the basis of selectivity coefficient values some important binary separation of heavy metal ion pairs such as Hg (II)-Zn (II), Hg (II)-Cd (II), Hg (II)-Ni (II) and Hg (II)-Cu (II) were carried out. It was observed that elution of heavy metal ions depends upon the metal-eluting ligand stability. Mercury remained in column for a longer time than that of other heavy metal ions. The separations are fairly sharp and recovery of Hg (II) ions is quantitative and reproducible.

Mg1.5Mn0.5Ti0.75O4 was prepared by a coprecipitation/thermal crystallization method. The extraction/insertion reaction with this material was investigation by X-ray, saturation capacity of exchange, and Kd measurement. The acid treatments of Mg1.5Mn0.5Ti0.75O4 caused Mg2+ extractions of more than 72%, while the dissolutions of Mn4+ and Ti4+ were less than 8.2%. The results showed that the Li+ extraction/insertion be progressed mainly by an ion-exchange mechanism. The acid treated samples had an ion exchange capacity of 10.6mmol/g for Li+.

Nafion composite membranes, containing different amounts of mesoporous sulfated titanium oxide (TiO2-SO4) were prepared by solvent-casting and tested in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), operating at very low humidification levels. The TiO2-SO4 additive was originally synthesized by a sol-gel method and characterized through x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and ion exchange capacity (IEC). Peculiar properties of the composite membranes, such as the thermal transitions and ion exchange capacity, were investigated and here discussed. When used as an electrolyte in the fuel cell, the composite membrane guaranteed an improvement with respect to bare Nafion systems at 30% relative humidity and 110 °C, exhibiting higher power and current densities.

Ammonium selective natural zeolite clinoptilolite is suggested as a possible support material for nitrifying biofilms to help improve effluent ammonium quality through its high capacity of ammonium removal in the process of ion exchange. This will especially be helpful in cases where the biofilter receives peak or variable loads routinely or occasionally. At the time of peak loads or shocks of ammonium, ion exchange capacity will provide a buffer for the effluent ammonium quality. Data to support this suggestion is presented.
