Chromium is a major pollutant for the environment, usually as a result of some industrial pollution. Chromium is used in various industries such as metallurgical (steel, ferrous and nonferrous alloys), refractories (chrome and chrome magnesite), and chemical (pigments, electroplating, tanning). For this reason, significant amounts of chromium pass into the environment and cause adverse ecological effects. In the present paper the investigations of solvent impregnated resin preparation was conducted. Photoacoustic and diffuse reflectance spectra were recorded for the prepared solvent impregnated resin. Photoacoustic spectra in the infrared area allow distinguishing the differences between the sorbent applied before and after the impregnation process. Impregnation of resin is a result of physical sorption of Aliquat 336 on macroporous Amberlite XAD 16.
