Remediation of 137Cs radionuclide in nuclear waste effluents by polymer composite: adsorption kinetics, isotherms and gamma irradiation studies

Polypyrrole is incorporated with activated carbon in large size dopant solution and investigated for 137Cs removal studies. Adsorption experiments showed optimum conditions within 240 min contact time, pH 6, 0.2 g adsorbent and ≤ 100 mg/l adsorbate dose, respectively, while the kinetic data followed...
