Characteristic Aspects of Uranium(VI) Adsorption Utilizing Nano-Silica/Chitosan from Wastewater Solution.

A new nano-silica/chitosan (SiO/CS) sorbent was created using a wet process to eliminate uranium(VI) from its solution. Measurements using BET, XRD, EDX, SEM, and FTIR were utilized to analyze the production of SiO/CS. The adsorption progressions were carried out by pH, SiO/CS dose, temperature, sorbing time, and U(VI) concentration measurements.
