1、,Radionuclide adsorption and precipitation: models, data and applications to performance assessment (放射性核素的吸附与沉淀: 模型、数据及其在性能评价方面的应用) WU Wangsuo(吴王锁) Radiochemistry Laboratory,Lanzhou University E-mail: ,Objectives -Table of contents,Scope of this talk: overview on chemical models used to quantify ra
2、dionuclide retention present a few selected results relevant to Performance Assessment (PA) show how data are integrated in PA models Table of contents: Defining radionuclide adsorption and (co)precipitation Adsorption: concepts, models and data (Co)precipitation: concepts, models and data Verifying
3、 the uptake mechanism Data integration in PA and their influence on calculations,Definitionsfrom the point of view of radionuclides (RNs),Adsorption: Electrostatic or chemical binding of RNs to a stable mineral surface Usually a reversible, kinetically fast process there are different types of adsor
4、ption mechanisms Precipitation: Incorporation of RNs in the lattice of a growing mineral Usually irreversible, as long as the solid remains stable “Precipitation” is a generic concept which includes: formation of pure RN phases (i.e. RN is a major constituent of precipitate) formation of solid solut

6、olid/liquid ratio V/m In reality, Kd is a conditional constant: strong variations as f(pH, I, composition),Adsorption Models (3) Empirical partitioning models Langmuir isotherm,GT, tot. available sites,Langmuir isotherm accounts for saturation of available sites At low adsorbate concentrations, it i

(1999) GCA, 63, 32173227,Problems with Kd and Langmuir isotherm models: distribution ratios (Rd) are strongly dependent on pH and solution compositio
8、n isotherm non linearity starts much earlier than site saturation,Why? reality is more complex: multiple sites many competing surface species,Eu on Ca- montmorillonite,pH 6.9,pH 6.0,Cs on illite,Adsorption Models (5) Empirical partitioning models Conclusions,Kd and KL are conditional constants. Thei
9、r values may greatly vary with pH, I and solution composition. Empirical models are thus inadequate to describe adsorption in a realistic way. Nevertheless, Kd and KL are acceptable parameters in PA calculations as long as they refer to the chemical conditions relevant to the specific repository sys
10、tem. This means that Kd values used to calculate nuclide retardation in PA must rely on accurate and realistic determination of the relevant pore water compositions.,Surface complexation models (6)basic assumptions,- oxide surfaces in water develop amphoteric (acid or basic) surface sites ( =SOH2+,
11、=SOH, =SO-) - solute species bind to such functional sites according to law of mass action equations similar to complexation reactions in solution - such surfaces are charged (+ or -). Charge may strongly depend on pH and the type/ amount of surface complexes formed - in turn, surface charge directl
