Problems solved by technology

However, in practical applications, the photocatalytic method can only occur under light, and the photocatalytic reduction of uranium cannot be carried out at night when there is no light, and it is easy to cause re-oxidation and dissolution of uranium reduction products, which affects the photocatalytic reduction efficiency.
[0003] To sum up, the problems existing in the existing photocatalytic uranium extraction technology are: the existing uranium photocatalytic reduction technology must be driven by light, and the uranium catalytic reduction cannot be continued in the dark, and it is easy to cause the oxidation of the extracted uranium. and redissolve
All in all, the current existing technologies are still difficult to achieve the continuous photocatalytic reduction of uranium under light and darkness, so as to achieve the purpose of extracting uranium from seawater day and night

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of new energy development, and discloses a catalyst for extracting and separating uranium in uranium-containing wastewater or seawater and application thereof.The catalyst is prepared through the following steps that after carbon nitride, potassium chloride and potassium thiocyanate are ground and mixed to be uniform, heat preservation is conducted for 3-5 h at the temperature of 500-600 DEG C, and a catalyst precursor is obtained; washing the catalyst precursor with clear water and an alcohol solution in sequence to wash salt and impurities on the surface of the catalyst precursor to obtain a washed catalyst precursor; and carrying out freeze drying treatment on the catalyst precursor to obtain the catalyst. The catalyst is good in cycle performance, uranium can be continuously separated from the water body through the separation method, only sunlight is needed in the whole process, and the method is environmentally friendly, sustainable and free of pollution.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of new energy development, in particular to a catalyst for extracting and separating uranium-containing wastewater or uranium in seawater and its application. Background technique [0002] The development and utilization of uranium resources are of great significance to the sustainable development of nuclear energy. However, proven terrestrial uranium resources are limited. Global seawater contains about 4.5 billion tons of uranium, thousands of times the known terrestrial uranium resources. At present, the most widely studied method for extracting uranium from seawater is mainly adsorption method, but this method has poor selectivity, low extraction efficiency, difficult elution and high cost. The photocatalytic method proposed in recent years provides a new idea for the separation and extraction of uranium in water. The photocatalytic method has the advantages of green, high efficiency, high selectivity...
