Abstract
The ability of synthetic and natural Mexican zeolites and clays to remove radioactive Co from aqueous solutions is discussed. In the various samples, crystallinity was determined by X-ray diffraction. The amount of radionuclide sorbed by the aluminosilicates was determined by γ-spectrometry.
