摘要

Rapid adsorption of radioactive substances is of great significance in emergency situations. A novel approach combining S-defect introduction and in situ phosphorization was employed to synthesize phosphorized WS2 (WS2-PO4) for ultra-efficient uranium extraction. At an initial U (VI) concentration of 50 mg·L−1, the adsorption of U(VI) by WS2-PO4 nanosheets exceeds 77% within just 1 min, with high selectivity (SU = 78.7%) and good adsorption capacity of 268.82 mg·g−1. The phosphate groups have grown on the S defects and taken part in U(VI) extraction through surface complexation, leading to fast, reusable, and highly selective uranium adsorption, showing great potential in emergency treatment of radioactive nuclear wastewater.
