Studies on the extraction behavior and immobilization of cadmium by greener reagents have important bearings in today’s science. No-carrier-added (NCA), 109Cd radionuclide is a potential candidate towards radiopharmaceutical studies for both in vivo and in vitro applications and is also used in industrial and environmental studies. Herein, we have studied the adsorption and desorption characteristics of cadmium in both NCA and bulk concentrations into calcium alginate using radiochemical method. Various isotherms like Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin–Radushkevich have been studied and compared to match the adsorption phenomenon. A spontaneous endothermic physisorption process is expected from thermodynamic parameters. © 2017, Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.

The birth of green chemistry in 1990 influenced every branch of sciences including radiochemistry. The development of new radiochemical methods is now dictated by the green chemistry mandates, especially in terms of choosing solvents and reagents. Though there are numbers of environmentally benign reagents and solvents, but sometime atom economy is not fully maintained in the manufacturing process. A newer trend is to use chemicals from natural resources. This new trend in radiochemistry may be termed as “Nature Resourced Radiochemistry”. The development in last two decades in “Radio-green Chemistry” and “Nature Resourced Radiochemistry” has been briefly discussed in the review. © 2018, Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.
