After reviewing the fundamental literature concerning the equilibrium of binary cation exchange reactions on zeolites, this paper provides a straightforward procedure of computation of their thermodynamic parameters, Kα and ΔG°, based on a method of evaluation of cations activity coefficients in solution, which is simple and accurate and is equipped with a sufficiently large data-base. The computation procedure was tested on isothermal equilibrium data of Cd 2+ and Zn 2+ exchange for Na + in zeolite A at 25.0°C and 0.05, 0.10, and 0.50 total normality, by calculating their Kα and ΔG° and by comparing these results to those obtained evaluating the cations activity coefficients through a reference largely used method and to previous literature data. The results obtained show that the proposed methods give results in good agreement with those obtained with the reference method so that it appears to be a good alternative for the determination of cation activity coefficients in solution.

Abstract
After reviewing the fundamental literature concerning the equilibrium of binary cation exchange reactions on zeolites, this paper provides a straightforward procedure of computation of their thermodynamic parameters, Kα and ΔG°, based on a method of evaluation of cations activity coefficients in solution, which is simple and accurate and is equipped with a sufficiently large data-base. The computation procedure was tested on isothermal equilibrium data of Cd 2+ and Zn 2+ exchange for Na + in zeolite A at 25.0°C and 0.05, 0.10, and 0.50 total normality, by calculating their Kα and ΔG° and by comparing these results to those obtained evaluating the cations activity coefficients through a reference largely used method and to previous literature data. The results obtained show that the proposed methods give results in good agreement with those obtained with the reference method so that it appears to be a good alternative for the determination of cation activity coefficients in solution.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
