Abstract
Sorption recovery of strontium from seawater and prospects of using selective sorbents for treatment of seawater or mixtures of liquid radioactive wastes (LRW) with seawater to remove 90Sr are examined. A comparative analysis is made of characteristics of various sorbents. The most of the sorbents studied demonstrate low distribution coefficients and selectivity with respect to strontium, being unable to provide efficient removal of 90Sr from seawater. The exceptions are new sorption reagents developed by the authors, which show promise for treatment of LRW to remove strontium. The possible mechanism of strontium sorption with these sorbents is suggested.
