Abstract
The sorption equilibrium and kinetics for the sorption of yttrium ions from yttrium sulfate and nitrate solutions on a natural mordenite-containing tu ff were studied. It was found that yttrium is quantitatively extracted from dilute solutions, whereas the sorption value decreases with increasing sol ution concentration. The kinetic parameters for the sorption process were d etermined.
