Influence of Magnetic Fields on Adsorption and Ion Exchange from Aqueous Solutions

Abstract

ABSTRACT:The influence of magnetic fields on the adsorption of some dyes and other substances from aqueous solution by activated carbon was studied. In a similar manner, the influence of magnetic fields on barium ion sorption by some zeolites from ordinary (H 2 O) and heavy (D 2 O) water was investigated. The data obtained suggest that the presence of a magnetic field decreases the hydrogen bonding energy between water molecules.
