Experimental Study on the Treatment of Uranium-Contaminated Mine Wastewater Using Zero-Valent Iron Nanoparticles

Abstract:

Zero-valent iron nanoparticles( nano-Fe0) were applied as a treatment tactics for a uranium-containing mine wastewater taken from Shaoguan, Guangdong, China. Different factors including pH value, nano-Fe0 dosage,reaction time were introduced to study the effect posed by those factors.Results indicated that those factors have significant effect on uranium removal rate.The best removal effect happened when pH=5~6, nano-Fe0 iron dosage is 2g/l,reaction time is 1h.It is also demonstrated that nano-Fe0may be an effective material for treatment of complex uranium-contaminated effluent.
