Nanoarchitectonics of poly(vinyl alcohol)/graphene oxide composite electrodes for highly efficient electrosorptive removal of U(VI) from aqueous solution

Xiaohuan Tang et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the efficient electrosorption of U(VI) from uranium-containing wastewater using polyvinyl alcohol/graphene oxide composite electrodes, with PVA/GO-4 showing the best performance. The Langmuir model and first-order model are suitable for predicting the adsorption behavior, with U(VI) reaching a capacity of 333.0 mg/g at 0.9 V. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirm the electrosorption mechanism.
