摘要
Technetium-99 (99Tc), predominantly present as pertechnetate (99TcO4-), is a challenging contaminant in nuclear waste from artificial nuclear fission. The selective removal of 99TcO4- from nuclear waste and contaminated groundwater is complex due to (i) the acidic and intricate nature of high-level liquid wastes; (ii) the highly alkaline environment in low-activity level tank wastes, such as those at Hanford, and in high-level wastes at locations like Savannah River; and (iii) the potential for 99TcO4- to leak into groundwater, risking severe water pollution due to its high mobility. This Review focuses on recent developments in advanced porous materials, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), and their amorphous counterparts, porous organic polymers (POPs). These materials have demonstrated exceptional effectiveness in adsorbing 99TcO4- and similar oxyanions. We comprehensively review the adsorption mechanisms of these anions with the adsorbents, employing macroscopic batch/column experiments, microscopic spectroscopic analyses, and theoretical calculations. In conclusion, we present our perspectives on potential future research directions, aiming to overcome current challenges and explore new opportunities in this area. Our goal is to encourage further research into the development of advanced porous materials for efficient 99TcO4- management. © 2024 The Authors.
