Review: This is the first of a series on Highlights of Russian Science. It discusses the main achievements of scientists of the former USSR in the areas of ion exchange science and technology. The 13 chapters cover all aspects of ion exchange including both the theoretical fundamentals and the practical applications of this phenomenon in manufacturing, mineral refining, and environmental clean-up. There are chapters on: sorption purification processes using ion-exchange materials with optimal kinetic, equilibrium and mechanical properties; analysing the formation of calthrate structures in ion-exchange phases; traditional purification methods and new ion-exchange fractional techniques; very stable supersaturated solutions of substances in ion-exchange columns; effective design of ion-exchange technologies; and the applications of surface impregnated sulphonate ion exchanges.
