Abstract: | The sulfonated mesoporous carbon (CMK-3-SO3H) prepared by functionalizing mesoporous carbon (CMK-3) via vapor transfer method has been explored for the removal and recovery of uranium from aqueous solutions. The influences of different experimental parameters such as solution pH, initial concentration, contact time and temperature on adsorption were investigated. The results showed that CMK-3-SO3H has the highest uranium sorption capacity at initial pH of 5.0 and contact time of 120 min, and the adsorption process could be better described by the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm. Selective adsorption studies showed that the CMK-3-SO3H could selectively remove of U(VI), and the selectivity coefficients of mesoporous carbon in the presence of co-existing ions, Mg(II), Zn(II), Mn(II), Cu(II), Ni(II), Sr(II) and Hg(II) improved after functionalization. |
