Abstract

A novel composite material of SiO2–Al2O3 based on poly(acrylic acid–maleic acid) was synthesized by irradiated with 60Co γ-rays at a dose of 25 KGy. The composite material was characterized using FTIR, TGA and BET surface area. Adsorption of 134Cs from HNO3 was studied as a function of contact time, temperature and concentration of Cs. Sorption behavior of 134Cs in different concentration of HCl, HNO3, acetic acid, ascorbic acid, citric acid, NaCl and NaNO3 solutions has been investigated. It can be concluded that the P(AA–MA)/SiO2/Al2O3 is promising adsorbent for Cs removal from acidic liquid radioactive waste.
