Abstract
The mathematical model tested for describing the dynamics of the process allowed a good fitting to the experimental data and enabled the estimation of effective pore diffusivity of Cr(III). The saturations of Diphonix with industrial effluents demonstrated that the breakthrough capacity of the resin is affected by the presence of other species in solution, such as Fe and Ni. Nevertheless, these effluents may be treated with this resin, being possible to separate Cr(III) from other transition metallic ions in solution.
