The invention relates to environment management, particularly to methods for purifying a wastewater in order to eliminate a toxic impact of heavy and radioactive metals. A method for purifying fresh, combined and saline wastewater from radioactive and heavy metals using an electrolysis and a special active substance (sorbent), wherein the wastewater is fed to an electrolyzer with a chamber that is separated by a special membrane that is permeable for ions of metals separately of water, then changes of the pH occur in order to form complex compounds, which comprise ions of radioactive and heavy metals. Afterwards, the adsorption of the obtained 0 compounds by the special active substance (sorbent) and filtering-off on a precoat filter that retains ions of heavy and radioactive metals are performed. The obtained filtrate is cemented without drying and evaporation in order to perform final deposition of the radioactive 0 compounds.

An organic iodine remover is a remover for removing organic iodine and is a substance composed of a cation and an anion, and the cation (for example, a phosphonium cation, an ammonium cation, or a sulfonium cation) has a molecular structure in which an electron donating group (for example, a phosphino group, an amino group, a sulfanyl group, a hydroxy group, or an alkoxy group) is bonded to a phosphorus atom, a nitrogen atom or a sulfur atom. An organic iodine removing apparatus includes: a vessel into which the organic iodine remover for removing the organic iodine is charged; and introduction pipes through which a fluid containing organic iodine is introduced into the organic iodine remover.

The invention discloses a phosphorus nitride adsorbent with high-efficiency selectivity, and its application thereof. The phosphorus nitride adsorbent has a mutually cross-linked hollow tubular structure. The adsorbent can have an adsorption capacity of 435.58 mg.Math.g.sup.−1 and 7.01 mg.Math.g.sup.−1 for spiked seawater and natural seawater with a uranium concentration of 350 ppb, and the adsorbent has a long service life, and can still maintain 91.14% of the initial adsorption capacity after 5 cycles of adsorption and desorption. Taking into account the advantages of a short material preparation cycle, a wide range of raw material sources, a low cost, an excellent adsorption performance, and long service life, the adsorbent can be used in technical fields such as uranium-containing wastewater treatment, uranium ore resource recovery, uranium extraction from seawater and the like.
