NOUFERROUS METALLURGICAL EQUIPMENT

Direct discharge of untreated wastewater containing uranium not only leads to environmental pollution but also affects human health. Adsorption, membrane separation, and chemical precipitation methods are difficult to efficiently and environmentally remove uranium. Against the backdrop of the increasing demand for uranium, seeking green and efficient treatment methods has become an urgent problem to be solved. Photocatalysis technology has advantages of high efficiency, environmental friendliness, and ease of operation, and has broad prospects in the treatment of uranium-containing wastewater. This paper first introduces the principle of photocatalytic technology, then deeply analyzes the main influencing factors and current research status of photocatalytic materials in the treatment of uranium-containing wastewater, and finally summarizes and prospects, providing a theoretical basis for the development of photocatalytic technology in the treatment of uranium-containing wastewater.
