Abstract
Efficient adsorption of radioactive 137Cs+ and 60Co2+ and their decay products 137Ba2+ and 60Ni2+ bears significance for hazard elimination in case of nuclear emergency, which relies on the adsorption rate enhancement that takes advantages of compositional and structural optimization. Herein, we report a zinc-doped selenidostannate constructed from T2-supertetrahedral clusters, namely K3.4(CH3NH3)0.45(NH4)0.15Zn2Sn3Se10·3.4 H2O (ZnSnSe-1K). The soft Se and micro-porosity synergistically endow this material with a binding affinity to Cs+, Ba2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ ions and ultrafast kinetics with R > 97.6% in 2-60 min. In particular, ZnSnSe-1K can remove 99.34% of Cs+ in 2 min (KdCs > 1.5 × 105 mL g-1), contributing to a record rate constant k2 of 9.240 g mg-1 min-1 that surpasses all metal chalcogenide adsorbents. ZnSnSe-1K exhibits good acid/base tolerance (pH = 0-12), and the adsorption capacities at neutral are 253.61 ± 9.15, 108.94 ± 25.32, 45.76 ± 14.19 and 38.49 ± 2.99 mg g-1 for Cs+, Ba2+, Co2+, and Ni2+, respectively. The adsorption performances resist well co-existing cations and anions, and the removal rates can keep above or close to 90% even in sea water. ZnSnSe-1K is employed in continuous column and membrane filtration, both of which shows excellent elimination efficiency (R > 99%) for mixed Cs+, Ba2+, Co2+, and Ni2+. Especially, the membrane with an ultrathin (70 µm) ZnSnSe-1K layer can remove 97-100% Cs+ in suction filtration with a short contact time of 0.33 s. Combined with the simple synthesis, facile elution and great irradiation resistance, ZnSnSe-1K emerges as a selenide adsorbent candidate for use in environmental remediation especially that involving nuclear waste disposal.

Abstract
Removal of radioactive 133Ba, 60Co and 63Ni and their nonradioactive isotopes through ion exchange method would be highly beneficial for the safe disposal of liquid industrial waste, and it also bears importance for the emergency response to nuclear accident. Herein, we report the employment of an indium sulfide [CH3CH2NH3]6In8S15 (InS-2) with exchangeable ethylammonium cations for efficient and selective uptake of Ba2+, Co2+ and Ni2+. The corner-sharing linkage of P1-{In8S17} clusters in InS-2 endow the layered structure with nanoscale windows, which facilitates both transfer and accommodation of the large hydrated divalent metal ions. This results in ultrafast exchange kinetics (10-20 min) and top-level exchange capacities of 211.73 mg g-1 for Ba2+, 103.57 mg g-1 for Co2+, and 111.78 mg g-1 for Ni2+. Particularly, InS-2 achieves ultrahigh Kd values of 2.3 × 105 mL g-1 for Ba2+, 2.0 × 105 mL g-1 for Co2+ and 1.6 × 105 mL g-1 for Ni2+, corresponding to remarkable removal efficiencies larger than 99.4% (C0 ~ 6 ppm). InS-2 shows high β and γ irradiation resistance, wide pH durability (pH 3-13 for Ba2+, pH 3-11 for Co2+ and Ni2+), and outstanding selectivity against competitor ions (e.g. Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+). The InS-2-filled ion exchange column exhibits a fantastic removal effect (R > 99%) for mixed Ba2+, Co2+, Ni2+, as well as Sr2+. The ultralong column-treatment on 20000 BVs of flow reveals an affinity order of Co2+ > Ni2+ > Ba2+ > Sr2+ for InS-2, which gives deep insights into the adsorption process and interaction between competitor ions. This excellent uptake of Ba2+ (Ra by analogy), Co2+ and Ni2+ ions by InS-2 highlights the great potential of metal chalcogenides as a type of promising materials for minimizing contamination in complex wastewater.

Abstract
To improve the efficacy of radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy for differentiated thyroid cancer patients, a low-iodine diet (LID) prior to the therapy is recommended. In iodine-rich areas such as Korea, however, a strict LID is very difficult to maintain. We experienced the cases of three patients showing low adherence to the LID before initial RAI therapy, and analyzed the main food source supplying iodine during the LID, and examined the influence of the poorly maintained LID on the efficacy of RAI therapy. The dietary intake during the LID periods were assessed using three-day dietary records and remnant thyroid activity after the second RAI administration was also evaluated. All patients' mean daily iodine intake during two-week LID periods exceeded the 100 µg guideline set by the Korean Thyroid Association (median 110.9 µg, ranges 100.4-117.0 µg). Although the typical food sources of iodine intake are seaweeds in Korea, salted vegetables were the main contributor to the patients' iodine intake during the LID periods. Remnant thyroid activity was shown on a follow-up scan in all of 3 patients suggesting low efficacy of RAI therapy. In summary, the patients with low adherence to the LID guideline showed unsuccessful remnant ablation, and the main food source of iodine was salted vegetables. Further studies are necessary to examine the relationship between adherence of the LID and RAI efficacy according to dietary iodine intake levels, as well as food sources that cause low adherence to the LID. These data can then be used to develop more practical LID guidelines.
