Abstract：Uranium is an essential resource for the nuclear industry. Uranium can be extracted from seawater but better extraction techniques are needed for sustainable development of nuclear energy and efficient exploitation of ocean resources. One critical challenge is the development of sorbent materials that efficiently bind uranyl ions in the seawater with good physicochemical properties in the ocean environment. Polymeric sorbents with amidoxime functionalities, a class of remarkable sorbents for uranium extraction from seawater, have attracted extensive interest because of their specific affinity toward uranium. Recent advances in electrochemistry, photochemistry, and biological chemistry have led to the development of high adsorption capacity and high selectivity sorbent materials. This review summarizes recent research on sorbents for uranium extraction from seawater, the design principles and material synthesis strategies. This review also describes the challenges of uranium extraction from seawater and the cost-efficiency tradeoffs for this process. Finally, this review concludes with the authors' perspectives regarding future research in this area.
