The recovery and separation of cobalt and manganese were investigated
according to ion exchanger properties and pH of solutions. It was dete
rmined that cobalt sorption increases with pH increase to 5.5. The cob
alt and manganese separation is performed using manganese substitution
by cobalt ions at pH more than 3.5 on chelating resins ANKB-35 and AM
F-2M. The cobalt content of manganese sulphate solutions does not exce
ed 0.6 mg/l.
