New Sorbents Based on Polyacrylonitrile Fiber and Transition Metal Ferrocyanides for 137Cs Recovery from Various Composition Solutions
Journal: Applied Sciences
Year: 2024

For the first time, new sorbents based on polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fiber and transition metal ferrocyanides were obtained. The main difference between the obtained sorbents and the existing ones is the stage of preliminary preparation of the initial support by converting it into the forms PAN-Fe(OH)3 or PAN-MnO2, due to which additional ion exchange groups (carboxyl, carbonyl, etc.) are formed, which increases the amount of ferrocyanide fixed to the support. The best components and conditions for
