With the rapid development of nuclear industry, a large amount of U(VI)-containing wastewater is inevitably generated and poses a serious threat to the environment. Hence, it is of great significance to remove U(VI) from aqueous solution. Herein, a novel magnetic absorbent (Fe3O4@DFNS-NH2) with core–shell and fibrous structure for U(VI) capture was fabricated. The magnetic core can make the adsorbent separated conveniently from solution and the functional porous shell facilitates the fast capture of U(VI). Batch experiments were carried out to...
