Abstract
The removal of radioactive cesium from water solutions with some concrete blocks was investigated. When the concrete blocks were prepared by mixing zeolites, the ability of holding and transmitting water was greatly increased. The cesium ions were adsorbed to a certain extent in these concrete blocks. Moreover, when the mixtures of zeolite and metal ferrocyanide were used, the radioactive cesium could be highly removed. In particular, the residual rate of cobalt ferrocyanide was attained to 90% or above.
