High efficient adsorption of radioiodine in nuclear waste has attracted extensive attentions all over the world. In this work, we fabricated sulfur and nitrogen co-doped graphene aerogels (SN-GA) through one-step hydrothermal method, and investigated its iodine adsorption behavior including adsorption kinetics and isotherms in water. Our results reveal that SN-GA exhibits a 3D porous architecture with thiophene-S, oxidized-S, pyridine-N, pyrrole-N and graphite-N co-doped into the sp2 carbon frameworks. The adsorption experiment showed SN-GA has a maximum iodine adsorption capacity of 999 mg g-1 determined by Langmuir isotherm, and the adsorption process could be better described by the pseudo-second-order model.
