Abstract: In order to improve adsorption performance of cuprous oxide for U(VI) in wastewater, the octahedral Cu2O material was used as base material and zeolite zinc imidazole(ZIF-8) was attached to cuprous oxide(Cu2O) by microwave method to obtain a modified cuprous oxide composite zeolite zinc imidazole (Cu2O@ZIF-8) adsorbent. The modified materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction characterization. The adsorption mechanism was analyzed based on the sample characterization results before and after the U(VI) adsorption experiment. The results show that Cu2O@ZIF-8 prepared by microwave method has a particle size of about 3 μm and a regular and uniform morphology. ZIF-8 is uniformly attached to the regular octahedral Cu2O. U-Cu2O@ZIF-8 has spherical agglomerated particles with a particle size of about 200~800 nm after adsorbing uranyl ions. Adsorption capacity of Cu2O@ZIF-8 prepared can reach 115.5 mg/g. Adsorption speed is relatively fast and adsorption saturation can be reached within 10 hours. And the metal interference ion in environment has basically no effect on the adsorption U(VI) performance of Cu2O@ZIF-8.The adsorption of U(VI) by Cu2O@ZIF-8 involves physical adsorption and chemical adsorption. U(VI) in solution is adsorbed to surface by ZIF-8 and then transferred to Cu2O core. And a reduction reaction with Cu2O to reduce to U(IV) is happened, which realizes the reductive removal of U(VI).
