Studies on inorganic exchangers - polyantimonic acid

Creators

Description

From the detailed experimental investigations carried out, it may be mentioned that the inorganic exchanger polyantimonic acid could be used for effectively separating strontium from fission product waste solutions free from caesium and zirconium at acidities of the order of 2M or so. After thorough washing of the column with 2M HNO3 acid to remove any residual activity unadsorbed, the strontium can be eluted with a mixture of 1M AgNO3 +6M HNO3 at room temperature. The column after regeneration and conditioning can be used for further adsorption and elution up to a maximum of 6 cycles without much deterioration in column characteristics. (author)
