Abstract

The article has investigated the impact of montmorillonite (natural and modified) for purification of waters containing uranium by ultraand nanofiltration. It has been shown that maximally possible uranium retention coefficient by a nanofiltration membrane was obtained when a modifier with the molecular weight 2 kDa was used. Whereas for an ultrafiltration membrane a high index of purification is achieved when using a modifier with the molecular weight 10 kDa.
