Efficient extraction of U(VI) ions from solutions

摘要: The rapid development of advanced techniques for selective and efficient U(VI) extraction from aqueous solutions is essential for addressing U(VI) environmental pollution and energy issues. Here, we share recent progress in U(VI) extraction from aqueous solutions, especially the most frequently applied techniques such as adsorption, catalysis (photocatalysis, piezocatalysis, and electrocatalysis), chemical deposition, and reduction by zero-valent metal particles. We attempt toelucidate the strategies and various mechanisms that contribute to the enhancement of selective U(VI) extraction. At the end of our review, we highlight the outlook, challenges, and prospects for the development of this field.
