Effect of Humic Acid on the Sorption and Kinetic Desorption of Radiocaesium Ions on/from Na-Rectorite Studied by the Batch Technique and a Chelating Resin

The sorption of radiocaesium ions onto Na-rectorite was studied at a pH value of 5.0 ± 0.2 using the batch technique under ambient conditions. The effect of humic acid on the Cs + ion sorption was also investigated. The results indicated that the presence of humic acid significantly enhanced the sor...
