Abstract


Anionic exchange resins were research with respect its capacity for removal arsenic content in water. Water of well V from Zimapán Hidalgo Mexico was used to make this research, because this water have a mean concentration of 480 ± 11 μg·L-1 of arsenic and it is
available as drinking water. The exchange resins employed were two strong anionic, one macroreticular (IRA-900) and other gel type (IRA-400), as soon as one third anionic weak macroreticular type (IRA-96). The experiments carried with this resins showing that IRA-900 has highest efficient in the process of arsenic removal from drinking water, because, it showed a treatment capacity of 700 Vagua·Vres-1; while that capacities of IRA-400 e IRA-96 resins were 320 and 52 Vagua·Vres-1 respectively. The mean concentration of arsenic residue in the treatise water was 24 μg·l-1 and it is within the maximum level permissible by Mexican official norm for drinking water.
