Abstract
The adsorption behaviour of Ba(II) on titanium(IV) oxide in an aqueous solution was studied by means of batch technique as a function of Ba(II) concentration, temperature and solution pH using Ba-140 as radiotracer. The results show that adsorption is essentially complete in ca 2 h and that the steady state values of adsorption at various concentrations agree well with the classical Freundlich isotherm and follow first order kinetics. The pH and temperature of the solution markedly affect the extent of adsorption. The nature and mechanism of adsorption are discussed.
