| 摘要 |
<p>The invention generally relates to a process for the recovery or removal of metal species from a solution or slurry comprising the steps of: a) contacting the solution or slurry with a polymeric material, selected from the group consisting of a solid superhydrophilic polyurethane polymer containing a chelating and/or solvating agent, a water-insoluble polymeric chelating agent dispersed in a water-insoluble carrier solution, and a water-soluble polymeric chelating or co-ordinating agent to load the polymeric material with metal species wherein said polymeric material; b) separating the loaded polymeric material from the solution or slurry; and c) recovering or removing the metal from the polymeric material. There is also considered a polymeric material for use in the recovery of metal species from a solution or slurry, the polymeric material comprising a solid superhydrophilic polyurethane polymer containing a chelating or co-ordinating agent and/or a solvating agent.</p> |
