Abstract
Radionuclides removal and immobilization are crucial issue for liquid radioactive waste management. Zr-Ca-Mg and Ti-Ca-Mg phosphates performance for Cs+ ions adsorption and immobilization was studied. Adsorption of stable Cs+ on composite phosphates was well described by Sips model and pseudo-second order kinetics. Zr-Ca-Mg samples had the highest Cs+ adsorption capacity (< 2.40 mmol/g) compared to Ti-Ca-Mg phosphates (< 2.18 mmol/g). The samples with high Ti and Zr content were characterized by enhanced efficiency of 137Cs radionuclide adsorption (Kd > 104 mL/g) in wide range pH of 4.0–10.0. Metal phosphates calcined at 1000 °C shown the safe immobilization of Cs+ ions.
