摘要
The uranium concentrations in Finnish drilled wells may reach a few mg l-1 (maximum 12.4 mg l-1). Most of the highest concentrations of uranium have been found in Southern Finland but elevated concentrations have been found all over the country. The removal of uranium with a strongly basic anion-exchange resin (SBA) has been tested in domestic use with different types of ion-exchange filters and water. SBA resin was considered to be the best type of resin for testing because of its high capacity, simplicity, and cost efficiency. Uranium is removed with SBA resin to more than 90% irrespective of the test location, water quality, and the presence of competing ions. © MAIK Nauka/Interperiodica 2001.
