Abstract
The sorption of radiostrontium on hydrated titanium(IV) oxide was stud ied in batch equilibration experiments. The strontium uptake capacity was determined. Batch distribution coefficients were measured as funct ion of solution pH as well as strontium and sodium concentration. The effect of electron beam irradiation on strontium sorption was also exa mined, ?he results are of significance in connection with the removal of radiostrontium traces from alkaline sodium salt-loaded wastes of re processing plant origin.
