This study investigated the use of rice straw derived biochar as a precursor for oxidized biochar to adsorb/ remove uranium (VI) from aqueous solutions. The RSBC-Ox showed high removal efficacy with a maximal adsorption capacity of 242.65 mg g(-1), fitting well to kinetic and isotherm models. The research highlights the potential of reusing rice straw as an effective and low-cost adsorbent for U(VI) removal, promoting resource utilization and sustainable materials management.
In this study, rice straw derived biochar (RSBC) was used as a precursor for obtaining oxidized biochar (RSBCOx), for which the capability for adsorbing/removing uranium (VI) from aqueous solutions was investigated. The U(VI) removal efficacy of RSBC-Ox was tested for different values of pH, ionic strength, initial concentration of U (VI) and temperature. RSBC-Ox reached 242.65 mg g(-1) as the most effective score regarding uptake. Experimental adsorption data fitted well to a pseudo-second-order kinetic model (reaching a value at equilibrium of q(e) = 148.9 mg g(-1), R-2 = 0.99), and to the Langmuir isotherm (achieving a maximum score of q(max) = 242.65 mg g(-1) complexation, and entropy-driven with a relatively increased randomness in the solid-solution interface. This research could be of aid for reusing rice straw as an effective and low-cost adsorbent for U(VI) removal in various environmental conditions, simultaneously promoting resource utilization and sustainable management of the materials, aiding to protect the environment and human health. , R-2 = 0.99). Thermodynamics revealed that adsorption was endothermic, and indicated inner-sphere complexation, and entropy-driven with a relatively increased randomness in the solid-solution interface. This research could be of aid for reusing rice straw as an effective and low-cost adsorbent for U(VI) removal in various environmental conditions, simultaneously promoting resource utilization and sustainable management of the materials, aiding to protect the environment and human health.
