Ammonium may be discharged directly into the sub-surface, or can be generated within the soil by ammonification. Its transport and fate involves a combination of the processes of adsorption, cation exchange, incorporation into biomass and release to the atmosphere in a gaseous form (Canter et al, 1987). Adsorption is possibly the main method of ammonium removal, and is particularly important under anaerobic conditions. With increasing pH, ammonium reacts to produce ammonia gas and can therefore be more easily released from the soil. 

The synthesis of DPE was described by Nohta et al. [411]. After the usual clean-up by alumina adsorption, cation exchange column chromatography or other suitable procedure [412], 150 fil of the sample solution (adjusted to pH 6.0-6.5) are mixed with 10 fil of a 20 mM solution of potassium ferricyanide and 150 1 of acetonitrile. Subsequently, 50 fA of the DPE solution (21.2 mg ml in 0.1 M HCl) are added and the reaction mixture is allowed to stand at 37 °C for 40 min. After cooling to room temperature, 100 /A aliquots are injected onto the column. Fluorescence intensity is recorded at 485 nm after excitation at 345 nm. Procedures for the determination of norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine in plasma [412] and urine [413] were reported. 

Another example of vims clearance is for IgM human antibodies derived from human B lymphocyte cell lines where the steps are precipitation, size exclusion using nucleases, and anion-exchange chromatography (24). A second sequence consists of cation-exchange, hydroxylapatite, and immunoaffinity chromatographies. Each three-step sequence utilizes steps based on different properties. The first sequence employs solubiUty, size, and anion selectivity the second sequence is based on cation selectivity, adsorption, and selective recognition based on an anti-u chain IgG (24). 

Polymeric cation-exchange resins are also used in the separation of fmctose from glucose. The UOP Sarex process has employed both 2eohtic and polymeric resin adsorbents for the production of high fmctose com symp (HFCS). The operating characteristics of these two adsorbents are substantially different and have been compared in terms of fundamental characteristics such as capacity, selectivity, and adsorption kinetics (51). 

In the physical separation process, a molecular sieve adsorbent is used as in the Union Carbide Olefins Siv process (88—90). Linear butenes are selectively adsorbed, and the isobutylene effluent is distilled to obtain a polymer-grade product. The adsorbent is a synthetic 2eohte, Type 5A in the calcium cation exchanged form (91). UOP also offers an adsorption process, the Sorbutene process (92). The UOP process utilizes ahquid B—B stream, and uses a proprietary rotary valve containing multiple ports, which direct the flow of Hquid to various sections of the adsorber (93,94). The cis- and trans-isomers are alkylated and used in the gasoline blending pool. 

SG sols were synthesized by hydrolysis of tetraethyloxysilane in the presence of polyelectrolyte and surfactant. Poly (vinylsulfonic acid) (PVSA) or poly (styrenesulfonic acid) (PSSA) were used as cation exchangers, Tween-20 or Triton X-100 were used as non- ionic surfactants. Obtained sol was dropped onto the surface of glass slide and dried over night. Template extraction from the composite film was performed in water- ethanol medium. The ion-exchange properties of the films were studied spectrophotometrically using adsorption of cationic dye Rhodamine 6G or Fe(Phen) and potentiometrically by sorption of protons.

The assumption of the association of Hb in the pores of carboxylic cation exchangers has been advanced in Ref. [47] on the basis of electron microscopy at the maximum filling, almost all the pore surface is filled with Hb associates which are ordered star-shaped structures. Interprotein interaction in the adsorption immobilization of enzymes have been reported in Refs. [74, 75]. 

The chemical adsorption of a relatively high molecular weight neutral polymer (poly(succinimide), M = 13000) on aminopropyl-Vydac 101 TP silica gel was applied by Alpert [47, 48] to prepare a reactive composite support for use in cation-exchange [47] and hydrophobic-interaction [48] chromatography of pro-... 

Sakurada et al.88, 145, 146 hydrolyzed aliphatic esters having various hydrophobicities with cation-exchange resins, Dowex 50 w, and found a close correlation between the accelerating factor and the degree of ester adsorption toward the resins. 

Methyl parathion is only slightly soluble in pH 7 water (55-60 ppm). This affects its mobility in water and its ability to be leached or solubilized into the water phase of a soil-water system. Factors most likely to affect the adsorption of methyl parathion in soil are organic matter content and cation exchange capacity. In soils of low organic matter (e.g., subsurface soils), calcium concentration, which affects the hardness of the water, may also be important (Reddy and Gambrell 1987). Several studies have shown... 

In spite of these limitations, three examples of (salen)-metal complex adsorption have been described. In the first one, Jacobsen s complex (la-MnCl) was adsorbed on Al-MCM-41 [27] by impregnation with a solution of the complex in dichloromethane, an approach that prevents the possible cationic exchange. The results in the epoxidation of 1,2-dihydronaphthalene with aqueous NaOCl were comparable to those obtained in solution, with only a slight reduction in enantioselectivity (55% ee instead of 60% ee). However, recycling of this catalyst was not described.
