Abstract
Magnetic sorbents were prepared by addition of ferrospheres to zirconia-silica gel followed by thermal treatment at 500 °C. The ferrosphere narrow fraction E -0.063+0.050 mm from fly ash resulted from combustion of Ekibastuz coal was used as a magnetic component. The surface of magnetic composites was additionally functionalized by grafting of – POONa and – NH2 groups. Under equilibrium conditions sorption capacities of the sorbents with respect to Се3+ used as a U4+/Th4+ simulator and Pb2+ were measured by means of determination of sorption isotherms which were fitted by the Langmuir model. It was established that extraction of Се3+ and Pb2+ from aqueous solutions is characterized by distribution coefficients of 104–106 ml/g. Temperature conditions for solid-phase crystallization of the sorbents resulting in polyphase systems with the content of zircon phase of 50 wt. % were found
