"One-can" strategy for the synthesis of hydrothermal biochar modified with phosphate groups and efficient removal of uranium(VI)
Journal of Environmental Radioactivity(2023)
摘要
Significant selectivity, reasonable surface modification and increased structural porosity were three key factors to improve the competitiveness of biochar in the adsorption field. In this study, a hydrothermal bamboo-derived biochar modified with phosphate groups (HPBC) was synthesized using "one-can" strategy. BET showed that this method could effectively increase the specific surface area (137.32 m(2) g(-1)) and simulation of wastewater ex-periments indicated HPBC had an excellent selectivity for U(VI) (70.35%), which was conducive to removal of U (VI) in real and complex environments. The accurate matchings of pseudo-second-order kinetic model, ther-modynamic model and Langmuir isotherm showed that at 298 K, pH = 4.0, the adsorption process dominated by chemical complexation and monolayer adsorption was spontaneous, endothermic and disordered. Saturated adsorption capacity of HPBC could reach 781.02 mg g(-1) within 2 h. The introduction of phosphoric acid and citric acid by "one-can" method not only provided abundant-PO4 to assist adsorption, but also activated oxygen-containing groups on the surface of the bamboo matrix. Results showed that adsorption mechanism of U(VI) by HPBC included electrostatic action and chemical complexation involving P-O, P-O and ample oxygen-containing functional groups. Therefore, HPBC with high phosphorus content, outstanding adsorption perfor-mance, excellent regeneration, remarkable selectivity and green value provided a novel solution for the field of radioactive wastewater treatment.
