ABSTRACT tive at transferring the radioactive content of a large volume of liquid into a small volume of solid. Efforts to develop new ion exchangers for specific applications are continuing. In spite of their advanced stage of develop- ment, various aspects of ion exchange technologies have been continuously studied to improve the efficiency and economy of their application in radioactive waste man- agement. The selection of an appropriate ion exchange material for the liquid radioactive waste treatment is possible on the basis of information provided by the manufacturer. However since the selection of the appro- priate ion exchange material depends on the needs of the system, it is expected that the data obtained from the actual experimental trials will prove to be more helpful. Generally the selected ion exchange materials must be compatible with the chemical nature of the radioactive liquid waste such type and concentration of ionic species present as well as the operating parameters notably tem- perature. Also while designing an ion exchange process- ing system it is desirable to have an adequate knowledge of the distribution coefficient values of the ion exchange resin towards different ions present in radioactive liquid waste. These distribution coefficients are very important parameter for environmental impact assessment on the disposal of radioactive waste arising from research in- stitutes [3]. Although there are differe
