The extensive use of nuclear energy and the rapid development of the nuclear industry have
produced a large amount of harmful radionuclide-containing wastewater, and bentonite …

Abstract Tetravalent actinides, An (IV), are usually assumed to be little mobile in near-neutral
environmental waters because of their low solubility. However, there are certain …

Batch adsorption treatment using Iraqi bentonite as a natural adsorbent was adopted in this
study to decontaminate actual 137Cs radioactive wastewater from the Al-Tuwaitha Nuclear …

The adsorption of uranium (VI) from aqueous solutions onto activated carbon has been
studied using a batch adsorber. The parameters that affect the uranium (VI) adsorption, such …

This study is devoted to studying the sorption of 137Cs on mineral sorbents at a wide pH
range, from 2 to 10, as well as to studying sorption mechanisms. In order to obtain the most …

The montmorillonite@ carbon (MMT@ C) composite was synthesized by the one-step
hydrothermal carbonization process. U (VI) sorption on MMT@ C from aqueous solution was …

Adsorption of uranium (VI) from aqueous solution by Fe 3 O 4@ TiO 2 composites was
studied by batch experiments. The adsorbent was characterized by scanning electron …

Understanding sorption and desorption processes is essential to predicting the mobility of
radionuclides in the environment. We investigate adsorption/desorption of cesium in both …

Nuclear weapons and fuel production have left many soils and sediments contaminated with
toxic levels of uranium (U). Although previous short-term experiments on microbially …

The kinetics of sorption of Cu2+ on a Saudi clay mineral (bentonite) was investigated at
20±0.5° C using different weights of the clay (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2 g). Each weight represents …
