Efficient adsorption performance of uranium in wastewater by novel MXene material TiVCT and its aerogel composites.

This work focuses on the application potential of novel MXene materials in the field of uranium-containing wastewater adsorption, particularly addressing gaps in existing research. Ultra-thin layered TiVCT was selected as the core adsorbent to thoroughly investigate its adsorption performance of uranium(U(vi))-containing wastewater. By compounding with sodium alginate, we successfully prepared easily recoverable aerogel beads and evaluated their adsorption capacity for ultra-low concentrations of U(vi) in seawater.
