摘要
In this paper, waste clay was cured with ethyl acetate to obtain treated clay (TC), which was modified with gallic acid to obtain a low-cost sorbent that was characterized by EDX, SEM, and FTIR analysis. Uranium(VI) adsorption was achieved using the batch adsorption method on the TC and gallic acid-modified treated clay (GMTC). The maximum uptakes of U(VI) on TC and GMTC were 37.2 and 193.0 mg/g, respectively. The U(VI) adsorption kinetics on the TC and GMTC sorbents were well-fitted by the pseudo-second-order mechanism, and the adsorption equilibrium followed the Langmuir model. The optimum parameters were applied to El Sela leach solution for uranium recovery.
