Rapid recovery of uranium with magnetic-single-molecular amidoxime adsorbent

Shilei Zhao et al.

Summary: Highly efficient treatment of uranium contamination is crucial for environmental sustainability. This study presents a magnetic-single-molecular adsorbent M-AO-Fc for the effective recovery of uranium from nuclear wastewater. The adsorbent exhibits high uranium adsorption capacity and fast equilibrium time, and can be efficiently recovered and reused due to its magnetism.

Hydrothermal synthesis of phosphorylated chitosan and its adsorption performance towards Acid Red 88 dye

S. Subramaniam et al.

Summary: Phosphorylated chitosan (P-CS) was successfully synthesized and shown to have good adsorption properties towards anionic dye Acid Red 88, making it a promising adsorbent for water treatment applications. The adsorption mechanism of P-CS/AR 88 system is mainly driven by electrostatic attractions, H-bonding, and n-pi interactions, as revealed by FTIR spectroscopy and DFT calculations.

Valorization of lemon peel waste as biosorbent for the simultaneous removal of nickel and cadmium from industrial effluents

M. Villen-Guzman et al.

Summary: The competitive biosorption of Ni(II) and Cd(II) on alkali-modified lemon peel showed efficient removal of both metals, with Ni(II) being better described by a pseudo first-order model. The maximum adsorption capacity of Ni(II) and Cd(II) reached as high as about 0.626 and 0.726 mmol g(-1), respectively, under optimal conditions. However, these values were reduced in the presence of coexisting heavy metals.

Uranium re-adsorption on uranium mill tailings and environmental implications

Meiling Yin et al.

Summary: The study comprehensively investigated the role of uranium re-adsorption behaviors during leaching tests with uranium mill tailings, revealing the influence of environmentally relevant factors on U re-absorption capacity and mechanism on UMTs with different particle sizes. The findings suggest that the environmental hazards and ecological risks of the U containing (waste) solids might have been underestimated due to the ignorance of the readsorption process, since the re-adsorbed U could be easily re-mobilized. Insights from this study are also helpful in developing effective in-situ remediation strategies.
