Abstract

The graphene oxides were applied as adsorbents to remove 90Sr(II) ions from aqueous solutions under different experimental conditions. The results showed that 90Sr(II) sorption was mainly dominated by ion exchange and outer-sphere surface complexation. The maximum sorption capacity (C smas) was calculated to be 3.84 × 10−4 mol/g at pH 5.8 and 20 °C, which was much higher than that of 90Sr(II) on other today’s materials. The thermodynamic parameters suggested that the sorption was an endothermic and spontaneous process. The theoretical calculation results indicated that COH and COC groups contributed to the coordination of Sr(II) ions.
