With the increasingly serious problems of environmental pollution and energy crises, the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy has attracted tremendous attention in recent years [1], [2]. In fact, photocatalysis is considered as one of the important technologies to achieve sustainable development. Especially, some precious metals [3], [4] and organic dyes [5], [6] have been used as important photocatalysts.

Releasing radioactive and highly toxic uranium-containing wastewater into the environment can have severe consequences for human health and the ecosystem [1], [2]. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an effective technology for removing uranium from complex wastewater.
