Adsorption experiments of europium(Eu) on Ca-bentonite,Na-bentonite, and the D231 cation exchange resin were performed using the ICM-AP kinetics method and continuous measurements. Because the kinetic experimental results observed in this study were different from those of traditional batch adsorption data, pseudo-first-order or pseudo-second-order kinetic models were unsuitable for fitting the experimental data.Hence, a liquid membrane diffusion(LMD) model was developed based on the assumption of simultaneous adsorption/desorption to discuss the mechanism of kinetic adsorption. The kinetic adsorption mechanism was also studied by using XPS.The results indicated that the proposed adsorption model can fit the experimental data more suitably, and the adsorption/desorption behaviors of Eu on bentonite and the D231 resin were simultaneously observed, suggesting that the adsorption kinetics of Eu(Ⅲ) was mainly dominated by hydrated Eu(Ⅲ) ions on the liquid membrane.展开更多

The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) micrographs and the atomic force microscopy (AFM) imagesevidenced the presence of a core-shell structure. In the infrared spectra, the shift of v_(COOH) to lower wavenumber withincreasing Eu^(3+) ion content indicates that coordination between the oxygen of the carboxylic group and Eu^(3+) has occurred.The fluorescence intensity of ~5D_0-~7F_2 transition was observed to reach its maximum with a carboxyl group molar percentageof 40% in the shell and an Eu^(3+)/--COO^- molar ratio of 1:3. The fluorescence intensity ratio of ~5D_0-~7F_2 to ~5D_0-~7F_1 transition reached its maximum with an Eu^(3+)/--COO^- molar ratio of 1:3 for all the four series.展开更多
