contents This paper investigates the removal of radon from purified and ambient airs by Ag-zeolite. Ag-zeolite is known to have very high performance for airborne radon removal. The dependence of zeolite type and silver content on the performance of radon removal was evaluated. The performance of radon removal by single pass and radon emanation were also evaluated. In addition, the adsorption performance due to zeolite solidification and the change in adsorption performance due to moisture in the gas were evaluated in order to investigate properties that should be considered for future practical use. These properties will be adaptable to the development of air purification systems for the large volume ultra-low radioactivity experiments.
