1053 Figure 1 – Results of the batch tests using Chitosan to remove uranium. On the other hand, tests using Moringa Olifera seeds have shown high uranium removal efficiency from water. These results are presented in Table 2. Table 21 - Initial and final concentration of uranium after batch experiment with Moringa Oleifera seeds Initial [U] (µg/L) Final [U] (µg/L) Contact time (h) Removal (%) Uncertainty (µg/L) 8 below detection limit* 2 - - 8 below detection limit* 4 - - 373 74.27 2 80.09 10.50 373 53.47 4 85.66 7.32 38 6.21 2 83.65 2.85 38 10.83 4 71.51 3.13 *Detection limit is 0.03 Bq/L Moringa Oleifera seeds (MOS) demonstrated high efficiency, achieving 85.66% removal. Preliminary tests demonstrate high removal efficacy, suggesting that this adsorbent is a strong candidate for further research.
