Abstract—In this study, an adsorbent (FO-Dowex) was
prepared by modification of commercial strong base anion
exchange resin (Dowex marathon MSA) with ferric oxide (FO)
and applied as adsorbent for removal of As(V) from aqueous
solution. The effects of initial iron concentration and reaction
contact time on adsorption capacity of As(V) were investigated
for optimal conditions of adsorbent. In addition, the FO-Dowex
was characterized using scanning electron microscopy and
Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy. It was shown that
the optimal initial iron concentration and reaction contact time
were 0.5 mol/L and 12 h, respectively. Comparison of
adsorption performance between the prepared FO-Dowex and
the anion resin revealed that FO-Dowex exhibited higher
adsorption capacity with the value of 74.07 mg/g compared to
the one from anion resin (49.75 mg/g) under the same conditions.
It can be suggested that the modification of anion resin with
ferric oxide can significantly improve the adsorption
performance in As(V) removal.
