ABSTRACT

Efficient and cost-effective removal of radioactive iodine anions from contaminated water has become a crucial task and a great challenge for waste treatment and environmental remediation. Herein, we present hexadecylpyridinium chloride monohydrate modified bentonite (HDPy-bent) for the efficient and selective removal of iodine anions (I- and IO3-) from contaminated water. Batch experiments showed that HDPy-bent could remove more than 95% of I- and IO3- within 10 min, and had maximum I- and IO3- adsorption capacities of 80.0 and 50.2 mg/g, respectively. Competitive experiments indicated that HDPy-bent exhibited excellent I- and IO3- selectivity in the excessive presence of common concomitant anions including PO43-, SO42-, HCO3-, NO3-, Cl- (maximum mole ratio of anions vs iodine anions was ∼50,000). An anion exchange mechanism was proposed for the selective adsorption of iodine anions. Optimal adsorption structure of HDPy+/I- (IO3-) at atomic level and driving forces of the I- (IO3-) adsorption were calculated by density functional theory (DFT) simulati ons. Moreover, the good durability and reusability of the HDPy-bent has been demonstrated with 5 adsorption-desorption cycles. Dynamic column experiment also demonstrated that HDPy-bent exhibited excellent removal and fractional recovery capabilities towards I- and IO3- from simulated groundwater and environmental water samples. In conclusion, this work presents a promising adsorbent material for the decontamination of radioactive iodine anions from wastewater on a large scale.
