ENGINEERING SUPPORT FOR THE APPLICATION OF ION-EXCHANGE FIBERS IN "WET" TECHNOLOGIES. MEMBRANE FILTRATION

Abstract

An experimental verification of the expediency of using membrane technologies as one of the options for engineering support of the use of ion-exchange fibers for solving environmental problems is discussed. Comparative data on the sorption of cations by the protonated and sodium forms of the ion-exchange fiber are presented. It is shown that membrane filtration is a rather effective means of providing optimal operating conditions for radial filtration cartridges made of ion-exchange fibers.
