The sorption of Ce(III) on three abundant environmental minerals (goethite, anatase, and birnessite) was investigated. Batch sorption experiments using a radioactive Ce tracer were performed to investigate the key features of the sorption process. Differences in sorption kinetics and changes in oxidation states were found in the case of the sorption of Ce(III) on birnessite compared to that on other minerals.
