Uranium adsorption efficiency of diglycolamic acid functionalized graphitic carbon nitride adsorbent: Kinetic, isotherm, and thermodynamic studies
This study proposes the use of diglycolamic acid-functionalized graphitic carbon nitride (HDGA-gCN) as an adsorbent for uranium removal. Our experiments showed that at pH 6.0, HDGA-gCN had a high adsorption capacity of 263.2 mg g−1 and achieved equilibrium in 30 min. The adsorption isotherm was well-fitted by the Langmuir model, and the adsorption kinetics followed a pseudo-second-order equation. U(VI) adsorption on HDGA-gCN is due to electrostatic interactions between the amine, diglycolamic acid, and uranium species. The thermodynamic parameters indicate that adsorption is spontaneous and exothermic. The loaded U(VI) can be desorbed using 0.1 M Na2CO3, and HDGA-gCN exhibited an exceptional adsorption percentage for U(VI) compared to other coexisting ions. HDGA-gCN had faster kinetics, adsorption capacity, and reusability, making it suitable for U(VI) remediation.
