Abstract
Abstract 79Se is one of the important radionuclides in the safety evaluation of high-level radioactive waste repository due to its long half-life and highly fissionable radioactivity. Nanoscale pyrite-zero nickel composites (FeS2/Ni0) were fabricated by ball milling method for selenium(IV) (Se(IV)) adsorption from aqueous solution. The effects of pH, solid-liquid ratio, time, temperature, initial concentration of Se(IV) on the adsorption of Se(IV) by FeS2/Ni0 were investigated. FeS2/Ni0 was characterized by SEM, XPS, XRD, FT-IR, BET and Zeta potential, and the mechanism of removing Se(IV) was analyzed. The results showed that FeS2/Ni0 had a good removal effect on Se(IV). When pH was 5.5, the solid-liquid ratio was 0.1 g L−1, the reaction time was 40 min, the maximum adsorption capacity of Se(IV) by FeS2/Ni0 could reach 259 mg g−1. The research results can provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of wastewater containing Se(IV).
