Abstract:
We report here a distinct case of strontium removal under 1 M NaOH solution by an ultrastable crystalline zirconium phosphonate framework (SZ-7) with high adsorption capacity (183 mg g-1) and in-depth removal performance (Kd = 3.9 × 105 mL g-1), demonstrating the potential application of SZ-7 for 90Sr removal in highly alkaline nuclear waste.
