New type of highly selective microcapsules for the removal of mercury from surface polluted waters

•Microcapsules containing trioctylmethylammonium chloride from poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) were developed.•Equilibrium experiments for mercury uptake at pH=1 and natural pH were studied.•A mathematical model using the ideal mass action law was proposed.•Different natural waters containing mercur...
