Subangstrom tuning of pore size for selective separation of radioactive strontium over environmental calcium by lanthanide-oxalate frameworks

Nankawa, Takuya; Sekine, Yurina; Yamada, Teppei*

Selective separation of radioactive ions is essential for reducing or cleaning radioactive wastes. Among the radioisotopes to be removed, $$^{90}$$Sr poses a major threat to human health and the environment. However, removal of $$^{90}$$Sr from environmental wastewater is still challenging due to the difficulty of separating $$^{90}$$Sr$$^{2+}$$ from Ca$$^{2+}$$. Here, we developed a series of isostructural lanthanide oxalate frameworks (LOFs) comprising oxalate and eight kinds of lanthanide (Ln) ions, i.e., from Samarium (Sm) to Thulium (Tm) for application to selective removal of $$^{90}$$Sr from wastewater using its tuned porous structure. The LOFs had ion exchangeable anionic pores, in which the size of the pores changed in a stepwise manner depending on the host Ln species. When Tb was the host Ln of the LOF, the LOF showed extremely high Sr$$^{2+}$$ selectivity and was able to distinguish the subtle difference in ionic radius (0.2 ${AA}$) between Sr$$^{2+}$$ and Ca$$^{2+}$$. The Sr$$^{2+}$$ selectivity was higher than that of conventional adsorbents. The pore size tuning of the LOFs by selecting the constituent Ln species yielded a highly ion-selective adsorbent material. This novel strategy will be useful in developing custom porous materials that are easy to prepare and applicable across various fields.

Selective separation and recovery of Sr from environmental ions by lanthanide oxalate frameworks

Among the radioisotopes to be removed, $$^{90}$$Sr, which has a radioactive half-life of 28.8 years, poses a major threat to human health and the environment because of its uptake and retention in biological systems. However, removal of $$^{90}$$Sr from wastewater is still challenging due to the difficulty of separating Sr$$^{2+}$$ from Ca$$^{2+}$$. Ca$$^{2+}$$ has a similar properties and ionic radius to $$^{90}$$Sr$$^{2+}$$. Indeed, the difference in their ionic radii is only 0.2 ${AA}$. Furthermore, the concentration of Ca$$^{2+}$$ in actual nuclear wastewater is usually much higher than that of $$^{90}$$Sr, which limits the efficient removal of $$^{90}$$Sr. Here, we developed a series of isostructural lanthanide oxalate frameworks (LOFs) comprising oxalate and eight kinds of lanthanide (Ln) ions, i.e., from Sm to Tm, for application to selective removal of $$^{90}$$Sr from wastewater using its tuned porous structure. When Tb was the host Ln of the LOF, the LOF showed extremely high Sr$$^{2+}$$ selectivity and was able to distinguish the subtle difference in ionic radius between Sr$$^{2+}$$ and Ca$$^{2+}$$. This novel pore size tuning strategy will be useful in developing custom porous materials that are easy to prepare and applicable across various fields.
