The University of Alabama (UA) proposes to understand how metal ions from seawater bind to uranium-selective amidoxime functionalized sorbents by experimentally determining the structures of metal complexes with molecules simulating the possible binding sites and characterizing these binding sites spectroscopically to produce spectroscopic signatures which can be used to identify particular metal coordination modes on actual seawater sorbents.
