Problems of Uranium Waste and Radioecology in Mountainous Kyrgyzstan Conditions
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is known that uranium industry in the former Soviet Union was a centralized state management. Information flows related to the issues of uranium mining was strictly controlled and is in a vertical subordination of the structures of the Ministry of Medium Machine Building of the USSR. After the USSR collapse, the information about uranium mining and processing were not available in Kyrgyzstan, and all the data related to past uranium production, were in the Russian Federation in the archives of the successor of the former “Minsredmash”.

متن کاملMicrobial Transformations of Uranium Complexed with Organic and Inorganic Ligands
Biotransformation of various chemical forms of uranium present in wastes, contaminated soils and materials by microorganisms under different process conditions such as aerobic and anaerobic (denitrifying, iron-reducing, fermentative, and sulfate-reducing) conditions will affect the solubility, bioavailability, and mobility of uranium in the natural environment. Fundamental understanding of the ...
متن کاملBiotransformation of uranium and other actinides in radioactive wastes
Microorganisms affect the solubility, bioavailability, and mobility of actinides in radioactive wastes. Under appropriate conditions, actinides are solubilized or stabilized by the direct enzymatic or indirect nonenzymatic actions of microorganisms. Biotransformation of various forms of uranium (ionic, inorganic, and organic complexes) by aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms has been extensivel...
