Abstract: | Cotton carbon aerogel was prepared and used as a new water-insoluble adsorbent to remove strontium from aqueous solution. A comprehensive study on adsorption of strontium by cotton carbon aerogel was conducted regarding the effects of initial pH, temperature, initial strontium concentration, and contact time. The adsorbent was characterized by SEM. The results of regression analysis indicated that the adsorption process largely depends on the pH and temperature. The optimum pH range for adsorption process is 5–7. The maximum removal efficiency of strontium from aqueous solution was 60.16%. Moreover, cotton carbon aerogel adsorbent has good reusability before the fifth reuse. |
