The separation of molybdenum (Mo) from tungstate solution is a bottleneck problem in tungsten (W) metallurgy, and it hinders the development of high-purity tungsten materials. In this research, a modified D301 resin was used to adsorb and separate molybdenum from tungstate solution. The maximum sorption capacity (Q e) of modified D301 for MoS4 2- was found to be 428 mg g-1 and the separation coefficient (ß) was 108.9 when the contact time was 4 h and the reaction temperature was 25 °C and the pH value of the tungstate solution was 7.2. The sorption process conforms to Langmuir isotherm models and the quasi-second-order kinetic model. The sorption mechanism was also discussed, which was a single layered spontaneous sorption process. Theoretical calculations infer bonding behavior between the N atom on the resin and the S atom on the MoS4 2- molecule. The sorption energy is -7.67 eV, which indicated that the sorption process is stable chemical sorption. The desorption experiment showed that more than 90% molybdenum could be desorbed from the loaded resin when the concentration of sodium hydroxide solution was 5 w%. Finally, after three-stage sorption-desorption, almost all molybdenum in the solution was adsorbed, achieving better separation of tungsten and molybdenum.
