Decontamination of radioactive TcO from nuclear wastes is increasingly crucial for spent nuclear fuel reprocessing and environmental remediation. In the presence of a large excess of competitive anions, the selective separation of TcO is a major challenge for adsorbents. Herein, by using pre-radiation induced grafting polymerization, we have modified economical and environmentally friendly cellulose microspheres to obtain quaternary phosphonium decorated TcO adsorbents with an ultra-high selectivity, designated CMS-g-VBPPhNO. The prepared materials show adsorption capacities of 251 mg g (for the surrogate Re). The selective factor against NO in 0.5 mol kg HNO is as high as 168, showing excellent anion-exchange selectivity towards TcO. Moreover, CMS-g-VBPPhNO was packed in column for treating simulated acidic waste solutions containing Cs, Sr, Eu, Zr, Ru, U and Re, and it showed excellent Re separation performance. Tracer amount of Tc experiments showed that comparing to ReO, CMS-g-VBPPhNO has a better adsorption selectivity for TcO.
从核废料中去除放射性 TcO 对于乏核燃料再处理和环境修复变得越来越重要。在大量竞争阴离子存在的情况下,TcO 的选择性分离对吸附剂来说是一个主要挑战。在此,我们通过使用预辐射诱导接枝聚合,对经济环保的纤维素微球进行改性,得到具有超高选择性的季膦化 TcO 吸附剂,命名为 CMS-g-VBPPhNO。所制备的材料对模拟 Re 的吸附容量为 251mg g。在 0.5molkg HNO 中对 NO 的选择因子高达 168,表现出对 TcO 的优异的阴离子交换选择性。此外,CMS-g-VBPPhNO 被填充在柱中用于处理含有 Cs、Sr、Eu、Zr、Ru、U 和 Re 的模拟酸性废溶液,表现出优异的 Re 分离性能。示踪量 Tc 实验表明,与 ReO 相比,CMS-g-VBPPhNO 对 TcO 具有更好的吸附选择性。
