This study investigated the potential of MIEX resin as the adsorbent for the removal of phosphate from aqueous solutions. In our batch experiments, we studied the effect of some parameters on the removal of phosphate. It was observed that uptake of phosphate was mainly affected by initial phosphate concentration, adsorbent dosage, initial pH of solution, and coexistent anions. The adsorption equilibrium data at 288 K fitted well to Freundlich and Koble-Corrigan isotherm models. The kinetics studies displayed that the adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order model. The diffusion studies showed that the intra-particle diffusion was not the only rate-controlling step and, the diffusion process of phosphate from solution to MIEX resin was controlled by film diffusion. The thermodynamics parameters were evaluated. The results showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous thermodynamically, endothermic, and entropy driven. These results have established a good potentiality for MIEX resin to be used as an adsorbent for the removal of phosphate from aqueous solutions. This work will deepen our understanding of the adsorptive characteristics of phosphate by MIEX resin and provide a better way to remove phosphate from wastewater. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc.
