Ai. Bortun et al., CS-137 SORPTION ON GRANULAR INORGANIC ION-EXCHANGERS BASED ON TITANIUM AND ZIRCONIUM HYDROXOPHOSPHATES, Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 174(2), 1993, pp. 279-289
We have studied the sorption properties of some granular inorganic ion
-exchangers synthesized by gel technology, such as titanium and zircon
ium hydroxophosphates (THP, ZHP), titanium and zirconium molybdophosph
ates and titanium and zirconium phosphate-ferrocyanides. A high select
ivity of THP and ZHP modified with ferrocyanide and molybdate ions to
Cs-137 has been found. The possibility of applying inorganic sorbents
for the purification of cesium-137 contaminated foodstuff is illustrat
ed on the examples of fish treatment.
