What is it about?
Removal of cesium, cobalt, and europium ions from radioactive waste solutions using poly-acrylamide based Ce(IV) phosphate material was investigated using both batch and fixed bed column techniques. Simple kinetic and thermodynamic models had been applied from which the mechanism of the process and the thermodynamic parameters were determined. Breakthrough data were investigated in a fixed bed column under the effect of various process parameters like bed depth, flow rate, and initial ion concentration.

Why is it important?
Separation of cesium, cobalt, and europium ions from radioactive waste solutions using a composite material was investigated using both batch and fixed bed column techniques. Simple kinetic and thermodynamic models had been applied from which the mechanism of the process and the thermodynamic parameters were determined. Breakthrough data were investigated in a fixed bed column under the effect of various process parameters like bed depth, flow rate, and initial ion concentration.
Perspectives
I hope this article makes what people might think is a boring, slightly abstract area like separation of cesium, cobalt, and europium radionuclides using column technique.
