Summary: | his paper describes the testing of titanium dioxide, chemically modified by arsenate groups, as an adsorbent of 90Sr from the component of aquatic ecosystems of the Chornobyl exclusion zone. It is shown, that the chemical composition of the aquatic environment impacts 90Sr adsorption. The 4As-TiO2 adsorbent reduces the activity of some samples by almost 100 %, which indicates selectivity and high adsorption capacity of the adsorbent in relation to 90Sr. In some experiments, this value reached 100 %, and the activity was reduced to the level of the maximum permissible 90Sr concentration. |
