Series: Sustainable Materials and Technology

This book presents theory, principles and applications of ion exchangers for water and environment management. It begins with an introduction, ion-exchange equilibrium kinetics of ion-exchange process and fundamental properties of ion exchangers which make them appropriate in various applications. The theories underlying the operation of ion-exchange resins are explained, as well as the production of resin products with groups adapted to specific ions or groups of ions including principles of ion-exchange process, different synthetic procedures of ion exchangers and characterization techniques, and the role of ion exchangers with their specific characteristics. This book is an invaluable tool to analytical chemists and researchers who are interested in the applications of ion-exchange materials.

Dr. Amita Somya currently serves as the Assistant Director of Research (i/c) and Professor in the Department of Chemistry at Amity University, Bengaluru, India. She earned her Ph.D. from Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, U.P., India, in 2009 and boasts over two decades of experience in teaching and research. Dr. Somya has been honored with numerous prestigious awards, including the Senior Research Fellowship from the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), New Delhi, India; the Women Scientist Award, Young Scientist Award, Prof. A.K. Dey Memorial Award, Best Research Paper Awards, Excellence in Education Award, Rajendra Kishore Mittal Gold Medal, Late Pannalal Loiwal Gold Medal, U.P. Topper Award, and the Shri Shanti Swarup Memorial Awards. Recently, she was awarded the ""Water Award"" by Save The Environment for her outstanding contributions to water purification processes and the development of green materials for environmental remediation. Her research focuses on the synthesis of hybrid/composite ion exchangers (monomer, polymer, and surfactant-based), nanocomposites, adsorbents for desalination and water purification, as well as corrosion inhibitors and biofuels. Dr. Somya holds two Indian patents in the field of water purification and has published over 35 research articles in peer-reviewed journals. Additionally, she has contributed more than 25 book chapters and delivered over 20 presentations at various national and international conferences throughout her distinguished research career. She is Fellow/Life member of several professional bodies like, Indian Science Congress Association, Indian Council of Chemists, ISSS etc. Dr. Anish Khan is currently working as Assistant Professor in Centre of Excellence for Advanced Materials Research, Faculty of Science, King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Anish Khan completed Ph.D. from Aligarh Muslim University, India, in 2010. Anish Khan completes postdoctoral from School of Chemical Sciences, University Sains Malaysia (USM), on electroanalytical chemistry in 2010. Anish Khan is working in the field of biosensor, polymers composite, organic-inorganic electrically conducting nanocomposites. More than 250 research articles, 80 book chapters, 48 books were published in referred international publishers and more than 20 international conferences/workshop. Anish Khan is Member of American Nano Society. Anish Khan’s field of specialization is polymer nanocomposite/cation-exchanger/chemical sensor/microbiosensor/nanotechnology, application of nanomaterials in electroanalytical chemistry, material chemistry, ion-exchange chromatography, and electroanalytical chemistry, dealing with the synthesis, characterization (using different analytical techniques), and derivatization of inorganic ion-exchanger by the incorporation of electrically conducting polymers.
