An apparatus for purifying blood has a blood compartment and a clearance compartment separated by a semi-permeable membrane. The apparatus includes a device containing a cation exchange resin charged with metal ions whose phosphates are insoluble in water. Metal salts of iron, aluminum, zirconium, lanthanum, thorium and tin are deposited on a cation exchange material and the charged cation exchange resin is contacted with dialysis liquid. The process of treating blood with the dialysis liquid is also contemplated. |
