Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An acid-stable 2D covalent organic framework (COF) was synthesized by a reversible Schiff base reaction and the following irreversible enol-keto tautomerism. Then, a novel composite was prepared by impregnating the 1,3-[(2,4-Diethylheptylethoxy)oxy]-2,4-crown-6-calix[4]arene(calix[4]arene-R14) analogues and their molecule modifiers into the pores of the prepared COFs support. Next, the adsorption performances of the prepared adsorbent for selective separation of cesium (Cs) from simulated high-level liquid waste and simulated radioactive contaminated wastewater were investigated under the effect of contact time, adsorption capacity, acid concentration etc.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
Cesium (Cs) as one of the heat-generating fission products of a nuclear power plant has a long half-life of around 30 years and is also a strong gamma (γ) radiation emitter. The method developed in this study provides a new viewpoint for the efficient recovery of Cs from nitric acid solution.
