Аннотация:Sorbents for anionic species of iodine are required at every stage of 129I management. Development of iodine adsorbingmaterial suitable for usage as engineered safety barriers (ESB) component in deep geological repository (DGR) sites orgeological disposal facilities (GDF) is a particularly important concern due to the final of disposal iodine-containing radioactivewaste is one of the most challenging problem in nuclear industry nowadays. This literature review discusses data onsilver-containing materials, which are characterized with the highest sorption properties towards anionic iodine species andhigh fixation permanence of radioiodine. Emphasis is on materials with high surface area modified with silver in variouschemical forms (Ag+, Ag0,Ag2O,AgCl etc.), methods of these materials obtaining are analyzed. Studying of data reportedin scientific literature shows that porous materials with silver applied on the surface as insoluble compounds, such as silver(I) oxide, silver chloride or bromide, are the most advantageous for usage as ESB component in DGR sites for anionic radioiodinespecies uptake.
