Radioactive cesium (137Cs) ions exhibit high-energy gamma radiation and long half-life. When they enter water body, serious environmental problems and damage to the human body are always generated. Herein, an electroactive composite membrane was facilely prepared by uniformly deposition of nickel hexacyanoferrate (NiHCF) nanoparticles on the surface and inner wall of coal-based tubular carbon membrane (CTCM) for rapid and selective separation of Cs+from wastewater. This NiHCF incorporated CTCM tube exhibited an extremely high removal rate (over 99.99%) over a long period. Meanwhile, it also demonstrated extreme Cs+selectivities even in the solutions with high coexisting ion concentrations (e.g., Cs+:Na+= 1:99, Cs+:K+= 1:99). The rapid and selective Cs+uptake/release should be attributed to the better dispersion of NiHCF nanoparticles with high selectivity to Cs+in the CTCM tube, which reduced the mass transfer distance, increased fluid turbulence and accelerated mass transfer rate. It is expected that such a NiHCF incorporated CTCM tube could be a promising alternative of conventional materials for the separating of radioactive Cs+ions.
