Sorption of Uranium (VI) From Aqueous Solution Using Nanomagnetite Particles; Singly and Coated With Humic Acid
Résumé
Abstract Magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4) and humic acid coated magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4/HA) were investigated for the removal of U(VI) from aqueous solution. Batch sorption experiments were studied as a function contact time, adsorbent mass, U(VI) concentration and pH. The sorption kinetic data follow the pseudo-second order while the isotherms are found to obey Langmuir model with maximum capacity (Qmax) of 230, 196 mg/g for Fe3O4 and Fe3O4/HA, respectively. The study reveals that humic acid decreases the sorption capacity due to the formation of a polyanionic organic coating and thus altering the surface properties of the particles and reduces the magnetite aggregation and stabilizes the magnetite suspension.
