Summary: | Cobalt ferrocyanide (CoFC) or nickel ferrocyanide (NiFC) magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were fabricated for efficient removal of radioactive cesium, followed by rapid magnetic separation of the absorbent from contaminated water. The $Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles, synthesized using a co-precipitation method, were coated with succinic acid (SA) to immobilize the Co or Ni ions through metal coordination to carboxyl groups in the SA. CoFC or NiFC was subsequently formed on the surfaces of the MNPs as Co or Ni ions coordinated with the hexacyanoferrate ions. The CoFC-MNPs and NiFC-MNPs possess good saturation magnetization values ($43.2emu{\cdot}g^{-1}$ for the CoFC-MNPs, and $47.7emu{\cdot}g^{-1}$ for the NiFC-MNPs). The fabricated CoFC-MNPs and NiFC-MNPs were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, TEM, and DLS. The adsorption capability of the CoFC-MNPs and NiFC-MNPs in removing cesium ions from water was also investigated. Batch experiments revealed that the maximum adsorption capacity values were $15.63mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$ (CoFC-MNPs) and $12.11mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$ (NiFC-MNPs). Langmuir/Freundlich adsorption isotherm equations were used to fit the experimental data and evaluate the adsorption process. The CoFC-MNPs and NiFC-MNPs exhibited a removal efficiency exceeding 99.09% for radioactive cesium from $^{137}Cs$ solution ($18-21Bq{\cdot}g^{-1}$). The adsorbent selectively adsorbed $^{137}Cs$, even in the presence of competing cations. 오염수로부터 자성분리가 가능하며, 방사성 세슘을 효율적으로 제거하기 위한 코발트 페로시아나이드(cobalt ferrocyanide, CoFC) 혹은 니켈 페로시아나이드(nickel ferrocyanide, NiFC)가 도입된 자성입자 흡착제를 제조하였다. $Fe_3O_4$ 나노입자는 공침법을 이용해 제조하였고, $Co^{2+}$와 $Ni^{2+}$ 이온을 입자 표면에 도입시키기 위해 금속이온과 금속 배위결합(metalcoordination)을 하는 카르복실기를 포함한 숙신산(succinic acid, SA)을 자성나노입자(magnetic nanoparticles, MNPs) 표면에 코팅하였다. CoFC와 NiFC는 자성나노입자 표면에 도입된 $Co^{2+}$ 혹은 $Ni^{2+}$ 이온이 hexacynoferrate와 결합하여 형성된다. 제조된 CoFC-MNPs 그리고 NiFC-MNPs는 각각 $43.2emu{\cdot}g^{-1}$, $47.7emu{\cdot}g^{-1}$의 우수한 포화자화 값을 보여주었다. X-선 회절분석(XRD), 퓨리에 변환 적외선 분광분석(FT-IR), 나노입자 입도 분석기(DLS), 투과전자현미경(TEM) 등의 분석을 통해 흡착제의 물성을 파악하고, 세슘에 대한 흡착 성능을 알아보았다. 흡착실험을 평가하기 위해 Langmuir/Freundlich 등온흡착식을 이용해 실험 결과 값을 곡선맞춤 하였고, CoFC-MNPs와 NiFC-MNPs의 최대흡착량($q_m$)은 각각 $15.63mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$, $12.11mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$이다. CoFC-MNPs와 NiFC-MNPs는 방사성 세슘에 대해서도 최저 99.09%의 제거율을 가지며, 경쟁이온의 존재에도 방사성 세슘만을 선택적으로 흡착한다. |
