Ion exchange kinetics. A nonlinear diffusion problem. II. Particle diffusion controlled exchange of univalent and bivalent ions

Abstract

The differential equation derived previously which describes the particle diffusion controlled ion exchange between spherical beads of uniform size and a well-stirred solution is solved numerically for the exchange of monovalent ions for bivalent ions, and of bivalent ions for monovalent ions. The approach is based on the Nernst-Planck equations of ionic motion. Numerical results for six different mobility ratios are presented and discussed. They were obtained by use of a digital computer. An explicit equation approximating the numerical data is given.
