Synthetic todorokite-type manganese oxides containing magnesium (todorokite(Mg)), calcium (todorokite(Ca)), and iron-doped todorokite containing magnesium (Fe-todorokite(Mg)) were treated with acid solutions to obtain protonated todorokite(Mg-H), todorokite(Ca-H), and Fe-todorokite(Mg-H), respectively, and studied for cesium adsorption from the aqueous solutions. The cesium adsorption rate was slow to attain equilibrium in 24 h at pH 4.4–5.5 (uncontrolled); the adsorptive capacities were 0.50 mmol g−1 for todorokite(Mg-H), 0.49 mmol g−1 for todorokite(Ca-H), and 0.27 mmol g−1 for Fe-todorokite(Mg-H). The cesium adsorptive capacity was significantly dependent on pH, increasing with increase in pH. A partial substitution of Mn by Fe (7.2 wt %) in the framework of todorokite greatly decreased the cesium adsorptive capacity compared to metal-undoped todorokite. The distribution coefficient Kd values of the protonated materials for Na+, K+, Cs+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ at 1.0 mmol dm−3 in acidic pH showed that the materials preferred Cs+ over other cations. Both todorokite(Mg-H) and todorokite(Ca-H) were effective for cesium adsorption completely (ca. 100%) from drinking water intentionally contaminated with 0.1 mmol dm−3 CsCl at solution-to-solid ratio of 0.1–1.0 dm3 g−1.
