Özet
In this study, radiocesium sorption on ceramic clay was investigated as a function of particle size and initial 137 Cs concentration using a batch method. Ceramic clay samples taken from the Söǧüt(İ nisar) clay deposit were composed of kaolinite, dickite and quartz. The equilibrium time and the liquid-solid ratio were determined as 60 min and 250 mL g -1 , respectively. The distribution coefficients (K d ) for variable liquid-solid ratio and the percentage adsorption (P Ad ) were calculated. The values of K d and P Ad ranged from 483 to 3165 mL g -1 and 34-93%, respectively. The K d and P Ad values increased with increasing particle size, but decreased with increasing initial concentration. The sorption data were interpreted in terms of a Langmuir isotherm. The results indicated that the Söǧüt(İnhisar) ceramic clay has good sorption capacity for cesium. © 2011 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.
