Zusammenfassung: | The present invention provides a process for separating iodine from a NaCl brine, comprising the following steps: (a) providing said NaCl brine containing iodide, (b) adjusting the pH of said NaCl brine to be no greater than 1.5, (c) adding oxidizing agent, such as chlorine containing oxidizing agent, to said NaCl brine resulting from step (b) to obtain an oxidation-reduction potential in said NaCl brine of from 560 mV to 925 mV, the combination of said pH of no greater than 1.5 and oxidation-reduction potential of 560 mV to 925 mV resulting in the formation of an iodine-chlorine anionic complex, and (d) contacting nonionic adsorption resin and said NaCl brine from step (c) one with the other to adsorb said iodine from this brine, to obtain as a result thereof NaCl brine wherein the iodine content therein is preferably no greater than 100 ppbw, more preferably no greater than 10 ppbw. |
