RESUMO
With open-chain polyether as the bridge chain, a new fungal-modified material with diamidoxime groups was prepared by a series of uncomplex synthesis reaction. The orthogonal experiment obtained its optimized adsorption conditions as follows: the initial pH value of 6.5, the initial uranyl concentration of 40 mg L-1, the contact time of 130 min, and the a solid-liquid ratio of 25 mg L-1. The maximum adsorption capacity of target material was 446.20 mg g-1, and it was much greater than that of the similar monoamidoxime material (295.48 mg g-1). The linear Langmuir (R2 = 0.9856) isotherm models and the linear pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R2 = 0.9931) fit the experimental data of uranium (VI) adsorption better, indicating the adsorption mechanism should mainly be the monolayer adsorption and chemical process. In addition, the relevant experiments exhibited the prepared material had the good reusability, which reached 84.25% of the maximum capacity after five cycles, and the excellent anti-interference performance. The above features suggest the modified fungus material will have the good application prospect in the future.
