Investigation of uranium adsorption on activated carbon

Aktif karbonun, yüksek sıcaklığa ve yüksek radyasyon dozuna karşı kararlılığı nedeniyle nükleer teknoloji alanında geniş bir kullanım alanı vardır. Ticari aktif karbon (Merck 2183) üzerine uranyum adsorpsiyonu çalkalama süresi, pH, başlangıç uranyum konsantrasyonu ve sıcaklığın bir fonsiyonu olarak incelenmiştir. Uranyum adsorpsiyon verimi %97±1 olarak bulunmuştur.

Activated carbon is widely used in the field of nuclear technology because of some specific properties, such as stability towards high temperature and high dose of radiation. The adsorption of uranium on commercially available activated carbon (Merck 2183) has been studied as a function of shaking time, pH, concentration of adsorbate and temperature. The uranium adsorption efficiency was found as 97 + 1 %.
