ABSTRACT:
A titanate ion exchanger and method of producing same. Solid hydrous titanium oxide in a slurry is reacted with an alkaline agent, such as NaOH, containing an exchangeable cation. A solids fraction containing the titanate product is settled and separated and a granular titanate ion exchanger product recovered from the solids fraction. The ion exchanger is suitable for the separation of radionuclides, such as those containing radioactive strontium, from nuclear waste solutions.
