Plutonium adsorption by selected inorganic compounds

Plutonium may be removed from aqueous solution by adsorption on inorganic materials. Hydroxylapatite, dibasic and tribasic calcium phosphate, calcium cyanamide, and sodium titanate are particularly noteworthy for their ability to concentrate plutonium. The extent of adsorption and pH of maximum adso...

Description
Summary:Plutonium may be removed from aqueous solution by adsorption on inorganic materials. Hydroxylapatite, dibasic and tribasic calcium phosphate, calcium cyanamide, and sodium titanate are particularly noteworthy for their ability to concentrate plutonium. The extent of adsorption and pH of maximum adsorption depend upon the chemical form of the dissolved plutonium.
