“…Nevertheless, the use of this method with known ion-exchangers does not allow reducing the content of toxic ions of heavy metals to the norm of the maximum permissible concentration [4]. The solution to this problem can be the use of more efficient cation-exchanger based on polymers modified with various functional groups [5][6][7][8][9][10], for example, carboxyl [9][10][11][12], amine [13], phosphoric acid [7,14,15], akylthiophosphoric [16], sulfogroups [17,18], etc. At the same time, to establish the optimal parameters of the sorption of metal ions, it is necessary to know the kinetic laws and the mechanism of the sorption process.…”
