Tritium recovery system using adsorption or catalytic isotope exchange has already been proposed for a solid breeding blanket system of a nuclear fusion reactor. Synthetic zeolite is often used as an adsorbent or a substrate of chemical exchange catalyst. And, it is well known that its property is changed easily by exchanging its cations. Synthetic mordenite is one of zeolites having fairly large silica/alumina ratio. There are many reports about hydrogen adsorption properties of cation-exchanged mordenite so far. And, the present authors also have reported that cation-exchanged mordenite with Ca ion (Ca-MOR) indicated fairly large hydrogen adsorption capacity at 77K in comparison with Molecular Sieves 5A (MS5A). So, in this work, hydrogen adsorption properties of cation-exchanged mordenite with transition metal ion were investigated mainly. The cation-exchanged mordenite with Ag ion (Ag-MOR) has indicated considerably large hydrogen adsorption capacity in lower pressure range at 77 K in comparison with Ca-MOR. The discussion from the viewpoint of adsorption rate is still remaining, but more compact cryosorption column for tritium recovery system is possible to design if Ag-MOR is adopted.
