Abstract:Ionic liquids (ILs) have significant potential for eco-friendly extraction of uranium from aqueous solutions, which is critical for nuclear technology, fuel cycle management, and environmental protection. This study examines the impact of the adjustable hydrophobic/hydrophilic properties of ILs on the removal of uranium(VI) (UO 2 2+ ) from aqueous solutions utilizing both a novel hydrophilic IL (1-butoxyethyl-1-methylmorpholinium butoxyethylphosphite − Mor 1−2O4 -BOEP) and 1-heptyl-1methylmorpholinium heptylph… Show more
