Abstract
Composite hydrous titanium(IV)-iron(II) oxides prepared by precipitation from homogeneous solutions were studied with a view to developing magnetic adsorbents for uranium extraction from sea water. Higher uranium adsorption capacity was registered with homogeneous than with heterogeneous solution used for preparing the oxide. The adsorbents for uranium prepared from homogeneous solution moreover were found to require the copresence of urea and a suitable anion such as SO2- 4, in order to provide strongly active adsorption of uranium. The value of saturated magnetization of the composite hydrous oxides decreased with increasing titanium mole fraction up to 0.75, increase of the titanium mole fraction had, on the other hand, the effect of enhancing uranium adsorption capacity, which however saturated beyond 0.75 titanium mole fraction. The change of enthalpy brought by the uranium adsorption on the composite hydrous titanium (IV)-iron (II) oxides was 10 kcal/mol, and the amount of change independent of the ...
