The ion exchanger NaFeTiO was synthesized and its behavior towards Cs+ and Sr2+ ion exchange and adsorption were studied. It was found that the selectivity of NaFeTiO for Cs+ or Sr2+ exchange can be adjusted by tuning the Ti/Fe mole ratio, demonstrating its potential application in separating cesium or strontium selectively from alkaline wastes.
The sodium iron titanate (NaFeTiO) ion exchanger was synthesized by the hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthotitanate and ferric chloride solution using sodium hydroxide. The amount of Fe3+ present in the solution was varied to obtain different Ti/Fe mole ratios in the product ranging from 5 to 15. The ion exchanger obtained was characterized by Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Thermogravimetry, SEM-EDX analysis and elemental composition. The ion exchange behavior of Cs+ and Sr2+ on sodium iron titanate was studied as a function of aqueous phase pH, equilibration time, initial concentration of Cs+ and Sr2+ and presence of interfering ions in aqueous phase. The rate of ion-exchange of Cs+ and Sr2+ was best fitted into pseudo-second order rate equation. Similarly, the loading behavior of Cs+ and Sr2+ on NaFeTiO and the data obtained were fitted into various adsorption models such as Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and Dubinin-Radushkevitch adsorption isotherms. From the statistics of the fitting, it was found that the experimental isotherm was explained well by Langmuir adsorption model. The ion-exchange capacity of 127, 115, 95 mg.g? 1 for Cs+ and 86,128,169 mg.g? 1 for Sr2+ were obtained on NaFeTiO with Ti/Fe mole ratios 5, 10, and 15 respectively. The results showed that the selectivity of NaFeTiO can be tuned either for Sr2+ exchange by keeping higher Ti/Fe mole ratio or for Cs+ exchange by keeping lower Ti/Fe mole ratio. In view of this, NaFeTiO compound can be regarded as the potential candidate for separating cesium or strontium selectively from alkaline wastes.
