Abstract: |
The distribution coefficients (Kd) were measured for Pu, Am and Se on sodium-bentonite in bentonite-equilibrated distilled water in a pH range 4~ 10. Sodium-bentonite includes sodium-montmorillonite and ferrous minerals such as pyrite. The experiments were carried out by using the batch method under aerobic conditions for Pu, Am and under anaerobic conditions for Se. The distribution coefficients for Pu and Am were in the range 100 ~ 102m3/kg on sodium-bentonite in the above pH range. The sorption of Pu and Am was modeled by ion exchange of these cationic aqueous species with interlayer cations of sodium-bentonite. The distribution coefficients of Se on sodium-bentonite were interpreted by using a surface complexation model. The model was based on the assumption that the sorption behavior was dominated by ferric-oxyhydroxide, goethite, coating on the surface of pyrite. Sorption behavior of Am in compacted bentonite were also discussed by using cation exchange model. |
