Record High Uranium Photoassisted Capture Performance from Fluorine-Containing Wastewater by Ag/WO3–x with Surface Defect and Heterostructure

The uranium recovery from high concentration fluorine-containing uranium wastewater is a desired research target in the field of environmental radiochemistry but is very challenging due to the formation of stable uranium fluoride complexes that are quite difficult to extract. By employing surface defect engineering and interfacial heterostructure design, we present here the rational design of an efficient photocatalyst (Ag/WO
