Concentration dependencies of nitric acid, nitrate ion, and so on for the adsorption and elution rates (mass transfer coefficients) of FP (Ln) in silica adsorbent, carrying various NTA amide extractants, were measured in the single silica particle/solution system by fluorescence microspectroscopy. The adsorption and elution rates were improved by changing polymer coating conditions for the silica adsorbent granulated by the freeze-drying method. We will discuss the mass transfer coefficients influenced by the nitric acid and nitrate ion concentrations.
