A study of ferrocyanide sorbents on hydrated titanium dioxide support using physicochemical methods

Abstract

The paper describes how the conditions of preparing ferrocyanides on hydrated titanium dioxide support affect the surface texture of the resulting materials, their elemental and phase composition, and their ability to sorb cesium. The sorbents prepared under the optimal conditions exhibited increases specificity to Cs (K d = 10 5.6±1.0 ml g -1) and high capacity (no less than 270 mg g -1). © Pleiades Publishing, Inc., 2012.
