A method and device of removing and recycling metals from a mixing acid solution, includes adsorbing a mixing acid solution with a pH value of −1 to 4 and a cobalt ion concentration of 100 to 1,000 mg/L by at least two cation resins in series setting to the cobalt ion concentration in the mixing acid solution is less than 10 mg/L, and then adjusting the pH value of the mixing acid solution after adsorption to meet a discharge standard, wherein the particle size of the at least two cation resins in series setting is 150˜1,200 μm. After the cation resins are saturated by adsorption, regenerating the cation resins by sulfuric acid to form a cobalt sulfate solution, and then electrolytically treating the cobalt sulfate solution to obtain electrolytic cobalt and sulfuric acid electrolyte. The operation process is simple without complicated equipment, and it can effectively recycle metals from mixing acid solutions. The cationic resin and sulfuric acid solution can also be reused, so the method of the present invention has environmental and economic benefits.

These systems and methods may be implemented in one or more of fixed, mobile, and modular embodiments.

A resin for removing phosphorus from water body, and a preparation method therefor and an application thereof. The particle size of the resin is 0.5-0.8 mm; the resin has a porous structure, the specific surface area is 8-25 m.sup.2/g, and the pore size distribution is 3-15 nm, the wet apparent density is 0.68-0.74 g/cm.sup.3; the wet true density is 1.12-1.18 g/cm.sup.3: and the water content of the resin is 43-57% in percentage by weight. The resin is loaded with a functional group having a lanthanum-oxygen bond, so that the resin can selectively adsorb phosphate radicals in the water body. The resin can selectively remove phosphorus in the water body by using a mode of loading lanthanum on weak acid cation resin and utilizing high selectivity of the lanthanum-oxygen bond to phosphate radicals, is easy to resolve and low in synthesis cost, and can be repeatedly used. Phosphorus in eutrophicated water and waste water can be effectively removed, the content of phosphate radicals in the water body can be controlled within 20 ppm, the phosphorus removal cost of the water body is reduced and the resin has great advantages compared with conventional disposable phosphorus adsorbents.
