title: Characterization and Adsorption Behavior of Strontium from Aqueous Solutions onto Chitosan-Fuller’s Earth Beads
abstract: Fuller's earth spherical beads using chitosan as a binder were prepared for the removal of strontium ions from aqueous solution. The adsorbents were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which revealed the porous nature of the beads. The Brunauer⁻Emmett⁻Teller (BET) surface area of the beads was found to be 48.5 m²/g. The adsorption capacities of the beads were evaluated under both batch and dynamic conditions. The adsorption capacity was
