The removal of boron from wastewaters containing boric acid and borax has been investigated. A boron-specific resin Amberlite XE 243 has been effective in removing boron. The experimental results obtained were evaluated both graphically and mathematically. The variation of boron concentrations in the effluents has been observed to depend, for various initial boron concentrations, Co on the ratio of filtrate volume to the volume accupied by resin. Consequently, an empirical equation relating effluent boron concentration, C to filtrate and resin volumes V and V1, respectively has been developed, resulting C = 2.34 . 10(-6). Co (V)-0.043.
