摘要
The adsorption of Am-241 and Ra-226 from natural water by a granulated wood charcoal was investigated as a function of the solution pH, in the range 4-10, and of the water flow, in the range 3.5-42 cm(3)/min. The percentage adsorption of Am-241 (fairly constant at >80% for all pHs) was greater than that of Ra-226 (which increased with increasing pH from similar to 40% up to >80%). The results are explained by considering the different species of each radionuclide present at the pH values of the solution at the end of the adsorbent column, and the pH of the point of zero charge of the adsorbent. At pH 6, the elimination of Am-241 from natural water was independent of the water flow, while the elimination of 226 Ra declined linearly as the flow rate was increased. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
