Description

The removal of Ce(III) from aqueous solutions by hydrous manganese oxide (HMO) and hydrous stannic oxide (HSO) was studied as a function of concentrations (10-2-10-7 mol x dm-3) and pH (1.2-10.0) by using the radiotracer technique. The effects of co-ions and irradiation of HMO and HSO were also studied. The uptake of Ce(III) fitted well with the Freundlich adsorption isotherm. No significant desorption of pre-adsorbed Ce(III) in the studied temperature range (303-333 K) indicates that both the solids may be good adsorbents for the removal of Ce(III). (author)
