Abstract
The efficient removal of U(vi) ions from contaminated natural waters and wastewaters of industrial processing plants by novel magnetic nanocomposites based on magnetite and Zn,Al-layered double hydroxides intercalated with citric and EDTA groups (Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/Cit and Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA) was shown. These adsorbents were obtained using co-precipitation and ion-exchange techniques. The infrared spectroscopy confirmed the existence of O-containing groups on the surfaces of Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/Cit and Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA, which could provide active sites in the interlayer of the adsorbents for the pollutants removal. The intercalation of Zn,Al-LDH with chelating EDTA-groups significantly increased the adsorption capacity toward U(vi) ions (131.22 mg g-1) compared to citric moieties in a wide range of pH (3.5-9.0). The maximum adsorption capacities of U(vi) at pH 7.5 were 81.12 mg g-1 for Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA and 21.6 mg g-1 for Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/Cit. The higher adsorption capacity of Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA vs. the citric sample might be explained by high affinity of LDH-supports and high-activity of the chelating groups in formation of the complexes in the interlayer space of the magnetic nanocomposite. The removal of U(vi) by the magnetic nanocomposites occurred due to interlayer complexation and electrostatic interactions. The cations (Na+, K+, Ca2+), HCO3 - and fulvic acid anions being typical for natural waters were practically not affected upon the removal of U(vi) from aqueous media. The adsorption performance of Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA nanocomposites was evaluated in the analysis of environmental and wastewater samples with recoveries in the range of 95.8-99.9%. This superior intercalation performance of LDH-supports provides simple and low-cost adsorbents, providing a strategy for decontamination of radionuclides from wastewater.

Abstract
The bioaccumulation characteristics and acute toxicity of uranium (U) to Hydrodictyon reticulatum were studied to provide reference for further mechanism and application research. According to an analysis using visual MINTEQ software, the pH change caused by the photosynthesis of H. reticulatum leads to U remaining mainly in the species of UO2(OH)3-. Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) analysis showed that the bioaccumulation of U was related to the amino and carboxyl groups, resulting in cell wall damage. Using innovative cell staining microscopic observation techniques, U was mainly compartmentalized in vacuoles and pyrenoid; chlorophyll, soluble protein, dehydrogenase activity, and other physiological responses were closely related to the U stress concentration. Especially here, the change trend of the specific activity and specific growth rate of dehydrogenase was consistent, showing low concentration promotion and high concentration inhibition. Combined with the toxic response of the two, the half inhibitory dose for 72 h was determined to be about 30 mg L-1. When bioaccumulation equilibrium is reached at 72 h, the maximum tolerance concentration of U without affecting the easy collection characteristics of the algae is 30 mg L-1, and the maximum U bioaccumulation capacity was able to reach 24.47 ± 0.86 mg g-1 by dry biomass.

Abstract
As a result of extensive research efforts by several research groups, magnetite-based materials have gained enormous attention in diverse fields including biomedicine, catalysis, energy and data storage devices, magnetic resonance imaging, and environmental remediation. Owing to their low production cost, ease of modification, biocompatibility, and superparamagnetism, the use of these materials for the abatement of environmental toxicants has been increasing continuously. Here we focus on the recent advances in the use of magnetite-based adsorbents for removal of radionuclides (such as 137Cs(i), 155Eu(iii), 90Sr(ii), 238U(vi), etc.) from diverse aqueous phases. This review summarizes the preparation and surface modification of magnetite-based adsorbents, their physicochemical properties, adsorption behavior and mechanism, and diverse conventional and recent environmental technological options for the treatment of water contaminated with radionuclides. In addition, case studies for the removal of radionuclides from actual contaminated sites are discussed, and finally the optimization of magnetite-based remedial solutions is presented for practical application.

Abstract
A novel adsorbent benzoimidazol-2-yl-phenylphosphinic acid/aminosilica adsorbent (BImPhP(O)(OH)/SiO2NH2) was prepared by carbonyldiimidazole-mediated coupling of aminosilica with 1-carboxymethylbenzoimidazol-2-yl-phenylphosphinic acid. It was obtained through direct phosphorylation of 1-cyanomethylbenzoimidazole by phenylphosphonic dichloride followed by basic hydrolysis of the nitrile. The obtained sorbent was well characterized by physicochemical methods, such as differential scanning calorimetry-mass spectrometry (DSC-MS), surface area and pore distribution analysis (ASAP), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopies. The adsorption behavior of the sorbent and initial silica gel as well as aminosilica gel with respect to uranium(VI) from the aqueous media has been studied under varying operating conditions of pH, concentration of uranium(VI), contact time, and desorption in different media. The synthesized material was found to show an increase in adsorption activity with respect to uranyl ions in comparison with the initial compounds. In particular, the highest adsorption capacity for the obtained modified silica was found at the neutral pH, where one gram of the adsorbent can extract 176mg of uranium. Under the same conditions the aminosilica extracts 166mg/g, and the silica - 144mg/g of uranium. In the acidic medium, which is common for uranium nuclear wastes, the synthesized adsorbent extracts 27mg/g, the aminosilica - 16mg/g, and the silica - 14mg/g of uranium. It was found that 15% of uranium ions leached from the prepared material in acidic solutions, while 4% of uranium can be removed in a phosphate solution.
