“…[24,25] in examining the potential application of crystalline silicotitanates (CST) as ion exchangers for the sequestration of 137 Cs and 90 Sr from radioactive nuclear waste solutions. The selectivity for Cs + , even in highly alkaline solutions of 1-7M NaOH and NaNO 3 [26], and its physicochemical resistance to crystalline deterioration by both high TECHNICAL REPORTS radiation fields and high pH (>12) solutions, make CST a promising candidate for selective removal of Cs + from waste solutions.…”
