Popis: Uranium plant wastewater was treated in laboratory scale experiments by employing zero valent iron powder. Batch experiments conducted by the response surface methodology (RSM) proved significant decrease in concentrations of uranium due to a decrease in an oxidation-reduction potential and an increase in pH relative to an application of zero valent iron powder. Results indicated that it is effective on the removal of uranium from uranium plant wastewater with the uranium concentration of 2772.23 μg/L due to the adding of zero valent iron powder. it was found that the scope of pH is widely from 3 to 5 from the experimental data obtained in this study. The predicted model obtained from response surface methodology is in accordance with experimental results.
