Abstract
To achieve the mutual separation of yttrium(Y(III)) and strontium(Sr(II)) from acidic solution, a diglycolamic acid-grafted adsorbent (DGAA−Si adsorbent) was successfully developed via a facile amidation reaction between diglycolic anhydride and a 3-aminopropyl-functionalized silica-gel. The adsorption performances of DGAA−Si adsorbent toward Y(III) and Sr(II) were systematically investigated in terms of the effect of the acid concentration etc. The particle-induced X-ray emission analysis method was used to study the adsorption behavior in the solid-state and elucidated the distribution conditions of the adsorbed Y(III) and Sr(II). Moreover, the mutual separation of Y(III) and Sr(II) was successfully achieved using acid in different concentration as an effluent solution.
