G. Pacheco et al., COMPARATIVE STRUCTURAL STABILITY OF NATURAL CLAYS AND ZEOLITES IN CONTACT WITH CO-60(2-SOLUTIONS() AQUEOUS), Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 187(6), 1994, pp. 431-434
The ability of synthetic and natural Mexican zeolites and clays to rem
ove radioactive Co from aqueous solutions is discussed. In the various
samples, crystallinity was determined by X-ray diffraction. The amoun
t of radionuclide sorbed by the aluminosilicates was determined by gam
ma-spectrometry.
