The sorption of uranyl ions on columns with the macrophorus hydrophobic sorbent Amberlite XAD 4 modified with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol and sodium diethyldithiocarbamate was examined. Following elution of the uranyl ion with HNO3 (2 - 4 mol l-1) or of the diethyldithiocarbamate UO22+-chelate with a methanolic solution of HCl (0.1 mol l-1), uranium was determined spectrophotometrically with 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol or with 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol. The preconcentration of uranium on Amberlite XAD 4 type sorbents is convenient for its spectrophotometric determination in waters.

Ion imprinted polymer is a kind of three-dimensional material with special cavity structure. Its cavity site has the function of specifically recognizing and binding target ions. It is a kind of materials that can selectively combine, enrich and remove target ions in the environment. Uranium is an important radioactive element, which has been widely used in nuclear power, military industry, science and technology and other fields. However, the accumulation of uranyl ions in environmental water causes serious health hazards to human body. Therefore, the detection and enrichment of uranyl ions in water is of great significance. In this paper, the theory, technology and application status of ion imprinted polymer for micro detection and adsorption of uranyl particles in wastewater were reviewed, and the development of uranyl ion imprinted polymer was prospected.

Abstract The objective of this work is to find a new, efficient and alternate low-cost adsorbent for preconcentration and spectrophotometric determination of uranyl ions U(VI) from aqueous solution. For this reason the new impregnated resin (ZnO/7HP) has been prepared by sol-gel technique. Characterization of ZnO/7HP was conducted using scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer and X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy. Several important parameters influencing the U(VI) adsorption such as pH, adsorbent amount, initial U(VI) concentration, contact time and temperature were investigated systematically by batch experiments. The obtained results showed that the equilibrium adsorption data were well fitted to the Langmuir model with a maximum adsorption amount of 24.96 mg/g. While the adsorption kinetics data were described well by the pseudo-second order model. This result indicates that the adsorption process is chemisorption. Thermodynamic results indicate that the U(VI) adsorption process is endothermic nature and favors at high temperature. Hydrochloric acid was used for preconcentration of U(VI) and detected spectrophotometry after the reaction with Arsenazo III. According to the definition of International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, the detection limit of this method was 0.12 μg/L. The relative standard deviation under optimum conditions is less than 3.0 % (n=5). The new impregnated resin ZnO/7HP is a promising adsorbent for preconcentration and spectrophotometric determination of U(VI) in aqueous solutions.
