Hexavalent uranium diffusion into soils from concentrated acidic and alkaline solutions.
Uranium contamination of soils and sediments often originates from acidic or alkaline waste sources, with diffusion being a major transport mechanism. Measurements of U(VI) diffusion from initially pH 2 and pH 11 solutions into a slightly alkaline Altamont soil and a neutral Oak Ridge soil were obtained through monitoring uptake from boundary reservoirs and from U concentration profiles within ...
متن کاملSurface Electrochemistry of Uranium Dioxide in Acidic Hydrogen Peroxide Solutions
The electrochemical reduction of H2O2 on SIMFUEL was investigated over the pH range 1 to 4. The mechanism at pH 4 is known to occur on U species incorporated into a surface layer of U1-2xU2xO2+x. However, below pH 3, reduction occurs on an adsorbed UO2(OH) state which is unstable and oxidizes to insulating U before dissolving as UO2. Both schemes are observed at intermediate pH’s. The presence ...
متن کاملIon exchange investigation for recovery of uranium from acidic pregnant leach solutions
In the face of depletion of fossil resources, the development of nuclear power in the world is inevitable. Poland is one of the few developed countries, which does not have a nuclear power plant [1]. Therefore, The programme of Polish nuclear energy has recently been implemented. Simultaneously, the interest in domestic uranium ores, which fi rst appeared in the fi ftieth of the previous centur...
متن کاملIonic self-diffusion in concentrated aqueous electrolyte solutions.
A self-consistent microscopic theory is developed to understand the anomalously weak concentration dependence of ionic self-diffusion coefficient D(ion) in electrolyte solutions. The self-consistent equations are solved by using the mean spherical approximation expressions of the static pair correlation functions for unequal sizes. The results are in excellent agreement both with the known expe...
متن کاملTracer diffusion of globular proteins in concentrated protein solutions.
The diffusion of tracer proteins at low concentration was measured in solutions containing "background" proteins at concentrations of up to 200 g/liter. The fractional reduction of the diffusion coefficient of tracer in the presence of a given weight/volume concentration of background species generally increases with increasing size of tracer species and with decreasing size of background speci...
