Mesoporous carbon functionalized with an amino group (MC-NH2) was prepared using a nitro-reduction strategy, and exhibited a high adsorption capacity for U(VI), showing potential for mitigating uranium pollution.
Mesoporous carbon (MC) functionalized with an amino group (MC-NH2) was prepared via a nitro-reduction strategy. TEM, FT-IR, porosity meter, and acid-base titration were utilized to obtain the physicochemical properties of MC-NH2. A batch adsorption experiment was conducted for U(VI) with MC-NH2. According to the results, the adsorption reached equilibrium at approximately 120 min under the optimal pH of 5.0, and the monolayer saturated adsorption capacity (q(ms)) of MC-NH2 was up to 385.98 mg center dot g(-1) for U(VI). Accordingly, adsorption of U(VI) on MC-NH2 exhibits the potential to diminish uranium pollution.
