Abstract

The adsorption characteristics of Sr ion in aqueous solution was examined using zeolite NaA powder (Z-PA) and pellets (Z-BA). In batch experiment, the adsorption of Sr ions by Z-BA and Z-PA was well expressed by pseudo-second-order kinetic model than psedo-first-order kinetic model. Experimental isotherm results was well fitted to Langmuir isotherm model and the maximum adsorption capacities obtained from Langmuir isotherm model were 233.32 mg/g for Z-PA and 164.60 mg/g for Z-BA, respectively. The continuous experiment results showed that the total Sr ion uptake (q) increased, but the breakthrough time, effluent volume (Veff) and total removal (R) of Sr ion decreased with the Sr ion concentration. The breakthrough curves obtained from the experiment was modeled by Thomas model. Key words: Zeolite, Adsorption, Sr ion, Batch, Continuous
