PROCESS FOR RECOVERY OF GALLIUM BY CHELATE RESIN

摘要

A process for recovery of gallium from aqueous solution containing gallium by adsorbing gallium to a chelate resin is disclosed. According to this process, the aqueous solution containing gallium is contacted batchwise with a chelate resin having a high selective adsorptivity for gallium or by flowing the aqueous solution through the resin at a rate of at least 20 parts by volume/hr of the aqueous solution per 1 part by volume of the resin.
