U(VI) adsorption on aerosol-synthesized hematite particles ranging in size from 12 to 125 nm was studied to explore nanoscale size effects on uranium adsorption. Adsorption on 70 nm aqueous-synthesized particles was also investigated to examine the effect of the synthesis method on reactivity. Equilibrium adsorption was measured over pH 3-11 at two U(VI) loadings. Surface complexation modeling, combined with adjustment of adsorption equilibrium constants to be independent of site density and surface area, provided a quantitative reaction-based framework for evaluating adsorption affinity and capacity, Among the aerosol-synthesized particles, the adsorption affinity decreased as the particle size increased from 12 to 125 nm with similar intermediate affinities for 30 and 50 nm particles. X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy measurements suggest that the differences in adsorption affinity and capacity are not the result of substantially different coordination environments of adsorbed U(VI).
