Novel uranium adsorbent AO-OB hierarchical self-assembled polyimide microspheres (AO-OBHSPIMs) were synthesized through molecule self-assembly and surface functionalization for the selective recovery of uranium from wastewater. AO-OBHSPIMs exhibited excellent selectivity to uranyl ions, good stability, recyclability, and high removal percentage in low-concentration solution and simulated uranium-containing wastewater. The adsorption mechanism of AO-OBHSPIMs was determined to mainly rely on electrostatic interactions and complexation in a spontaneous endothermic monolayer adsorption process. AO-OBHSPIMs showed promising application prospects in uranium-containing wastewater remediation.
Through molecule self-assembly and subsequent surface functionalization, novel uranium adsorbent AO-OB hierarchical self-assembled polyimide microspheres (AO-OBHSPIMs) were obtained by introducing the amidoxime groups into hierarchical self-assembled polyimide microspheres for the efficient and selective recovery of uranium from wastewater. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm showed that AO-OBHSPIMs were a semicrystalline polymer material with self-supporting hierarchical structure and low pore volume, and they were equipped with abundant amidoxime groups. Given the recognized selectivity of amidoxime groups and their hierarchical structure, AO-OBHSPIMs exhibited excellent selectivity to uranyl ions. Moreover, AO-OBHSPIMs exhibited good stability and recyclability and remarkable removal percentage within low-concentration solution (99.4%) and simulated uranium-containing wastewater (97.3%). AO-OBHSPIMs could be applied to fixed-bed column adsorption due to their large particle size and self-supporting hierarchical structure that can facilitate water flow. The in-depth discussion of the adsorption mechanism showed that the adsorption mainly depended on the combined action of electrostatic interactions and complexation, and the adsorption process was a spontaneous endothermic monolayer adsorption. In summary, AO-OBHSPIMs exhibited good application prospects in uranium-containing wastewater remediation.
