Efficient sorption and secure immobilization of strontium ions onto nanoporous alumino-borosilicate as a new matrix.

ABSTRACT: The objective behind developing the nanoporous alumino-borosilicate (AlBS) was to remove strontium ion (Sr²⁺) from liquid waste and subsequently stabilize it. The sorption capacity of the nanoporous AlBS was assessed in relation to various experimental factors, including contact time, temperature, initial pH solution, and initial concentration of Sr ions. According to the obtained results, nanoporous AlBS shows a maximum Sr²⁺ sorption capacity of 163.08 mg/g. In order to achieve stable immobilization of the sorbed Sr ions, heat treatments at different temperatures were applied to the Sr-containing nanoporous AlBS. Various eluents were used in the leach tests to examine the Sr ions leaching from heat-treated materials. Only 3.43% of the Sr ions initially adsorbed in th
