Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are recognized as a prime example of
nanotechnology applied in the biomedical field, due to their easily tunable structure and …

In the context of rising anthropogenic activities and world conflicts, there is an urgent need
for energy supply, such as nuclear power from uranium minerals. Nonetheless, uranium is …

According to the global vision of “carbon peak and carbon neutrality”, extracting uranium
from natural seawater is regarded as a promising candidate for meeting nuclear fuel …

In this work, three kinds of biochars (PMBC-H 2 O, PMBC-PP and PMBC-HP) with excellent
adsorption performance were obtained by carbonizing pig manure pre-treated with different …

Highly efficient removal of uranium from uranium-containing nuclear wastewater is important
both for utilizing the uranium resource and protecting the environment from the hazards of …

The development and utilization of nuclear energy produced a large amount of uranium
(VI)/thorium (IV)-containing wastewater, which would be harmful to the environment. The …

Urea and thiourea have been successfully deposited at the surface of silica beads (through
one-pot reaction with formaldehyde) for designing new sorbents for U (VI) and Th (IV) …

Highly efficient treatment of uranium contamination is of great importance for the sustainable
development of the environment. The recovery of uranium by adsorbents is a feasible …

A new nano-silica/chitosan (SiO2/CS) sorbent was created using a wet process to eliminate
uranium (VI) from its solution. Measurements using BET, XRD, EDX, SEM, and FTIR were …

A new sorbent was designed by functionalization of a bio-based composite made of
chitosan and Arabic gum. The grafting of two sulfonate-bearing moieties allows reaching, at …
