Abstract
The sorption behavior of 235U fission fission products 99Mo and 132Te was studied through batch and dynamic experiments when they were dissolved in 1 to 7M HNO3 solutions. It was found that 99Mo is always totally adsorbed on hydrated SnO2, while 132Te is rather weakly adsorbed, therefore they can be separated from each other although 132Te in the solution still remains contaminated with other radionuclides as well as 99Mo does in the solid.
