KINETICS OF CESIUM REACTIONS WITH SOME INORGANIC CATION EXCHANGE MATERIALS

Journal Article · · Am. Mineralogist
OSTI ID:4757663
The kinetics of cesium exchange for sodium were studied in the film diffusion region for several cation exchange materials, including an alumina- silica gel, Type A synthetic zeolite, clinoptilolite, phillipsite, erionite, and vermiculite. Existing techniques, including the shallow bed'' used to investigate cation exchange kinetics of organic resins, were applied to the above inorganic exchange materials. Results for the effects of temperature, flow rate, cesium concentration, and competing sodium on film diffusion loading rates ata. Cesium diffusion film thickness was computed by two methods with comparable results. Loading rates of inorganic cation exchangers can be predicted through use of fundamental kinetic data. (auth)
