Abstract
The kinetics of the 99Мо sorption onto T-5 sorbent at different pH values of the nitric acid solution was studied. The previously suggested limiting steps of the 99Мо sorption onto Т-5 sorbent were confirmed. The effective rate constant of the molybdenum sorption onto titanium hydroxide (fast step) as a function of pH passes through a maximum at pH from 4.5 to 5.5, which does not correspond to the maximum of the pH dependence of the distribution coefficient but correlates with the maximal content of one of the sorbable species, НМоО4–, in the solution. Thus, the rate of Mo sorption onto titanium hydroxide as a function of pH passes through a maximum at a minimal negative charge of the sorbate near pH of the isoelectric point of the sorbent. The kinetic studies confirm the scheme of the sorption of molybdenum hydroxo complexes onto titanium hydroxide, suggested previously on the basis of the logkd–рН and log ε–log[m] sorption isotherms. According to this scheme, simultaneous redistribution and sorption of sorbable molybdenum species, МоО2ОН+, Н2МоО4, and НМоО4–, are possible.
