The feasibility of using spirulina as adsorbent for the treatment of low-level liquid radwaste is studied. The experimental results indicate that the sorption capacity of spirulina is good for the di-and trivalent metallic ions at pH 3-7, but rather poor for the mono-valent metallic ions and non-metallic ions. Some factors affecting metal ion uptake by spirulina such as the content of detergent, sodium ion in liquid radwaste and the stability of spirulina under γ irradiation were also investigated.
