A material includes a porous particle that includes a metal ion imprinted polymer. The metal ion imprinted polymer is formed from a hydrophilic co-monomer, a metal containing polymerizable compound, and a cross-linking agent. The metal containing polymerizable compound includes at least one metal chelating ligand. The metal ion imprinted polymer includes a plurality of metal ion selective binding sites. A method includes flowing brine containing a metal ion through a reactor that includes the material. The method further includes discharging the brine from the reactor, contacting the porous particles with water, and pressurizing the reactor with carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide reacts with the adsorbed metal ions to form a metal carbonate solution. The method further includes depressurizing the reactor to precipitate metal carbonate from the metal carbonate solution and discharging the metal carbonate solution from the reactor.

The present invention relates to the field of solid-phase extraction, and particularly to a solid-phase extraction material, and a preparation method and use thereof. The preparation method includes prepolymerizing the monomers N-vinylpyrrolidone and divinylbenzene in the presence of a chain transfer agent, adding prepolymer dropwise to an emulsion of monodispersed seed microspheres, swelling, and reacting to prepare white spheres; and functionalizing the white spheres, to obtain the solid-phase extraction material.

Here the methodologies for resin syntheses and core-shell(s) modifications and liquid chromatographic applications of the newly developed resins in the field of analysis and purification of Tween surfactants, virus-like particles (VLP)/vaccines/viral vectors/viruses, antibody, and mRNA are disclosed.

The present invention relates to a process of preparing a chloride adsorbent with natural binder wherein the organic binder is used to bind metal oxide powder altogether and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or carbon black is used as porogen. The chloride adsorbent is then extruded, left at room temperature, dried and burned to form pores. The prepared adsorbent can efficiently remove the chloride compounds in both forms of inorganic chloride e.g. hydrogen chloride (HCI), organic chloride e.g. vinyl chloride (VCI) and trichloro ethylene (TCE) from the hydrogen stream generated from the continuous catalytic reforming unit, in the actual operation in the oil refinery and aromatic substance production facilities. The adsorbent prepared according to the present invention contains metal oxide of zinc in an amount of up to 99.5-99:8% by weight.
