Due to the broad range of applications (e.g.: catalyst, polishing agents, in fuel cells, pollutant adsorbed, in medicine), ceria is one of the most engineered oxides at nano- and micro-scale. The present research demonstrates highly reactive, nearly mono-dispersed metal oxides NPs with very large specific surface area (>300 m /g). The size of the NPs can be tailored by controlling the temperature and the pressure of the process. This research project explores applications of high quality CeO nanomaterials towards safe management of liquid radioactive wastes contributing to the environmental protection, resources, energy consumption optimisation, and circular economy.
