Radiochemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

The possibility of efficient removal of U(VI) from aqueous media by sorption onto layered double hydroxide of zinc and aluminum, intercalated with hexacyanoferrate(II) ions, in a wide pH range (3–9) was demonstrated. The limiting value of the U(VI) adsorption, calculated for this sorbent from the Langmuir equation, is 345 µmol g–1.
