The potential use of inorganic ion exchangers to remove radioisotopes such as cesium and strontium for liquid wastes is well-documented. Materials such as sodium titanate have excellent adsorption properties for these elements, but their application is hampered by the poor mechanical properties of the commercially available materials. Powdered sodium titanate has been incorporated into hydrous titanium oxide microspheres produced by an internal gelation technique. The adsorption of Sr{sup ++} from 0.10 M NaNO{sub 3} has been measured as a function of pH. Kinetic data and loading capacity have also been evaluated. These data will be compared with data for pure hydrous titanium oxide and commercially available sodium titanate to determine the feasibility of using the doped microspheres for the removal of strontium from nitrate wastes.
