The sorption of Np(V) and Np(IV) onto kaolinite has been studied in the absence and presence of humic acid (HA) in a series of batch equilibrium experiments under different experimental conditions: [Np]0: 1.0 × 10-6 or 1.0 × 10-5 M, [HA]0: 0 or 50 mg/L, I: 0.01 or 0.1 M NaClO4, solid to liquid ratio: 4 g/L, pH: 6–11, anaerobic or aerobic conditions, without or with carbonate. The results showed that the Np(V) sorption onto kaolinite is affected by solution pH, ionic strength, Np concentration, presence of carbonate and HA. In the absence of carbonate, the Np(V) uptake increased with pH up to ∼96% at pH 11. HA further increased the Np(V) sorption between pH 6 and 9 but decreased the Np(V) sorption between pH 9 and 11. In the presence of carbonate, the Np(V) sorption increased with pH and reached a maximum of 54% between pH 8.5 and 9. At higher pH values, the Np(V) sorption decreased due to the presence of dissolved neptunyl carbonate species with a higher negative charge that were not sorbed onto the kaolinite surface which is negatively charged in this pH range. HA again decreased the Np(V) uptake in the near-neutral to alkaline pH range due to formation of aqueous neptunyl humate complexes. The decrease of the initial Np(V) concentration from 1.0 × 10−5 M to 1.0 × 10−6 M led to a shift of the Np(V) adsorption edge to lower pH values. A higher ionic strength increased the Np(V) uptake onto kaolinite in the presence of carbonate but had no effect on Np(V) uptake in the absence of carbonate.  相似文献

It has long been recognized that the Pu4+ ion can be readily adsorbed on solid surfaces, but it has been assumed that the generally more abundant Pu(V)O2+ ion should have little affinity for surfaces. Our results indicate that Pu(V)O2+ can be adsorbed from dilute solutions and seawater on goethite, aragonite, calcite, and δ-MnO2. Adsorption on δ-MnO2 is severely depressed in seawater, probably as a result of site competition with seawater cations.The sorption behavior of PuO2+ is influenced by oxidation-reduction reactions occurring on the mineral surfaces. Adsorption on δ-MnO2 results in oxidation of adsorbed Pu(IV) and Pu(V) to Pu(VI). However, adsorption on goethite results in a reaction in which Pu(IV) and Pu(VI) are formed on the mineral surface. The Pu(VI) is slowly reduced to Pu(IV), leaving Pu(IV) as the dominant surface Pu species. This reaction can be photochemically catalyzed. PuO2+ adsorbed on carbonate minerals behaves similarly to Np(V)O2+ and undergoes little change in oxidation state after adsorption.  相似文献

The subsurface mobility of Np is difficult to predict in part due to uncertainties associated with its sorption behavior in geologic systems. In this study, we measured Np adsorption onto a common gram-positive soil bacterium, Bacillus subtilis. We performed batch adsorption experiments with Np(V) solutions as a function of pH, from 2.5 to 8, as a function of total Np concentration from 1.29 × 10−5 M to 2.57 × 10−4 M, and as a function of ionic strength from 0.001 to 0.5 M NaClO4. Under most pH conditions, Np adsorption is reversible and exhibits an inverse relationship with ionic strength, with adsorption increasing with increasing pH. At low pH in the 0.1 M ionic strength systems, we observed irreversible adsorption, which is consistent with reduction of Np(V) to Np(IV). We model the adsorption reaction using a nonelectrostatic surface complexation approach to yield ionic strength dependent NpO2+-bacterial surface stability constants. The data require two bacterial surface complexation reactions to account for the observed adsorption behavior: R-L1 + NpO2+ ↔ R-L1-NpO2° and R-L2 + NpO2+ ↔ R-L2-NpO2°, where R represents the bacterium to which each functional group is attached, and L1 and L2 represent the first and second of four discrete site types on the bacterial surface. Stability constants (log K values) for the L1 and L2 reactions in the 0.001 M system are 2.3 ± 0.3 and 2.3 ± 0.2, and in the 0.1 M system the values are 1.7 ± 0.2 and 1.6 ± 0.2, respectively. The calculated neptunyl-bacterial surface stability constants are not consistent with values predicted using the linear free energy correlation approach from Fein et al. (2001), suggesting that possible unfavorable steric interactions and the low charge of NpO2+ affects Np-bacterial adsorption.  相似文献

Elevated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) concentrations were determined in different Chinese coals, with the highest concentrations in bituminous coals. Phenanthrene (Phen) was chosen as the probe compound for PAHs to study the sorption behavior of coal. No native Phen was detected in desorption experiments indicating irreversible sorption–desorption behavior of PAHs in raw coal samples. Sorption mechanism was further studied under varying conditions of pH value and ionic strength. Different ranks of coal showed different sorption behavior under acidic, neutral, and alkaline conditions. Batch experiments were further processed for the selected coals at pH values from 3 to 11 at a constant aqueous concentration. Sorption capacities of all coals decreased with increased pH except for YJ coal. Furthermore, although DOC-associated Phen mass contributed little to the total Phen mass under different pH values, the significant negative correlations between M DOC and log K OC values were observed for all coal samples, indicating a significant role played by DOC in the coal sorption. In addition, sorption experiments under varying ionic strength showed that the ionic strength influence was more obvious in sorption isotherms for higher rank coals with increasing ionic strength, and this effect was most significant when ionic strength increased from 0 to 0.15 M, especially at relatively low aqueous concentrations.  相似文献

Organic ligands affect the sorption and mobility of radionuclides in soils. Batch desorption experiments on goethite particles reveal the extent of uranyl desorption and hence bioavailability with different organic acids. The desorptive strength increases in the following order: background electrolyte < Na-alginate < desferrioxamine B (DFO-B) < oxalate. The sequence is consistent with decreasing molecular size and mass from alginate via DFO-B to oxalate. The concomitant Fe release in the desorption experiments indicates that desorption from goethite and not dissolution of goethite governs the mobility of adsorbed U(VI). A compilation of DFO-B surface excesses on goethite from our experiments together with literature values indicate that DFO-B adsorbs at a constant ∼3% to the goethite surface. It is surprising that such a small fraction suffices to account for the considerable uranyl desorption and thus remobilization of a radionuclide into solution. Oxalate displays higher surface concentrations but still lower than the determined uranyl surface excess. It follows that based on the high U(VI) stability constants, both organic ligands induce the desorption of uranyl species by increasing the chemical affinity of the aqueous phase. In the case of alginate, desorption of uranyl is weak and adsorbed alginate hampers any considerable detachment of U(VI) in the presence of the more potent ligands, DFO-B and oxalate. This inhibition is based on biosorption and in this respect polysaccharides in soils may retard and even halt the advance of actinides through the soil column. This hypothesis calls for further studies into the interaction of siderophores and polysaccharides with soil adsorbents and their role in the mobilization of contaminant metals.  相似文献

Little or no information is available in the literature about reaction processes of co-sorbing metals and arsenate [As(V)] on variable-charged surfaces or factors influencing these reactions. Arsenic and metal contamination are, however, a common co-occurrence in many contaminated environments. In this study, we investigated the co-sorption kinetics of 250 μM As(V) and zinc [Zn(II)] in 10, 100, and 1000 mg goethite L−1 0.01 M NaCl solution at pH 7, collected complementary As and Zn K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data after various aging times, and performed a replenishment desorption/dissolution study at pH 4 and 5.5 after 6 months of aging time. Arsenate and Zn(II) formed adamite-like and koritnigite-like precipitates on goethite in 100- and 10-ppm goethite suspensions, respectively, whereas in 1000-ppm goethite suspensions, As(V) formed mostly double-corner sharing complexes and Zn(II) formed a solid solution on goethite according to EXAFS spectroscopic analyses. In all goethite suspension densities, surface adsorption reactions were part of the initial reaction processes. In 10- and 100-ppm goethite suspensions, a heterogeneous nucleation reaction occurred in which adamite-like precipitates began to form 48 h earlier than koritnigite-like surface precipitates. Arsenate and Zn(II) uptake from solution decreased after 4 weeks. Replenishment desorption studies showed that the precipitates and surface adsorbed complexes on goethite were susceptible to proton-promoted dissolution resulting in many cases in more than 80% loss of Zn(II) and ∼ 60% to 70% loss of arsenate. The molar Zn:As dissolution ratio was dependent on the structure of the precipitate and was cyclic for the adamite and koritnigite-like surface precipitates, reflecting the concentric and plane-layered structures of adamite and koritnigite, respectively.  相似文献

Sorption edge data for Ni(II), Co(II), Eu(III) and Sn(IV) [Bradbury M. H. and Baeyens B. (2009) Sorption modelling on illite. Part I: titration measurements and sorption of Ni(II), Co(II), Eu(III) and Sn(IV), Part I] on purified Na-Illite du Puy are available from some previous work, and some new measurements for Am(III), Th(IV), Pa(V) and U(VI) are presented here. All of these sorption edge measurements have been modelled with a 2 site protolysis non-electrostatic surface complexation and cation exchange (2SPNE SC/CE) sorption model for which the site types, site capacities and protolysis constants were fixed [Bradbury M. H. and Baeyens B. (2009), Part I]. In addition, two further data sets for the sorption of Am(III) and Np(V) on Illite du Puy, obtained from the literature, were also modelled in this work. Thus, surface complexation constants for the strong sites in the 2SPNE SC/CE sorption model for nine metals with valence states from II to VI have been obtained. A linear relationship between the logarithm of strong site metal binding constants, SKx−1, and the logarithm of the corresponding aqueous hydrolysis stability constant, OHKx, extending over nearly 35 orders of magnitude is established here for illite for these nine metals. Such correlations are often termed linear free energy relationships (LFER), and although they are quite common in aqueous phase chemistry, they are much less so in surface chemistry, especially over this large range. The LFER for illite could be described by the equation: where, “x” is an integer. A similar relationship has been previously obtained for montmorillonite, thus LFERs relating to the sorption on two of the most important clay minerals present in natural systems have been established. Such an LFER approach is an extremely useful tool for estimating surface complexation constants for metals in a chemically consistent manner. It provides a means of obtaining sorption values for radionuclides for which there are no measured values and thus allows gaps in missing sorption data to be filled. An ultimate goal of this approach is to develop a thermodynamic sorption database. This could then be used in radioactive waste management performance assessment studies to calculate sorption in natural systems, and thereby replace the current usage of single solid liquid distribution coefficients (Kd values) to describe radionuclide uptake. Finally, with the data now available, the 2SPNE SC/CE sorption model can be ported into reactive transport models allowing radionuclide migration to be calculated under spatially and temporally changing conditions.  相似文献

79Se is a potentially mobile long-lived fission product, which may make a dominant contribution to the long-term radiation exposure resulting from deep geological disposal of radioactive waste. Its mobility is affected by sorption on minerals. Selenium sorption processes have been studied mainly by considering interaction with a single mineral surface. In the case of multi-component systems (e.g. soils), it is difficult to predict the radioelement behaviour only from the mineral constituents. This study contributes to the understanding of multi-component controls of Se concentrations towards predicting Se behaviour in soils after migration from a disposal site. This goal was approached by measuring selenite sorption on mono and multi-phase systems physically separated by dialysis membranes. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, very few studies have used dialysis membranes to study the sorption competition of selenite between several mineral phases. Other workers have used this method to study the sorption of pesticides on montmorillonite in the presence of dissolved organic matter. Indeed, this method allows measurement of individual Kd in a system composed of several mineral phases. Dialysis membranes allowed (i) determination of the competition of two mineral phases for selenite sorption (ii) and determination of the role of humic acids (HAs) on selenite sorption in oxidising conditions. Experimental results at pH 7.0 show an average Se(IV) sorption distribution coefficient (Kd) of approximately 125 and 9410 L kg−1 for bentonite and goethite, respectively. The average Kd for goethite decreases to 613 L kg−1 or 3215 L kg−1 in the presence of bentonite or HA, respectively. For bentonite, the average Kd decreases slightly in the presence of goethite (60 L kg−1) and remains unchanged in the presence of HA. The experimental data were successfully modelled with a surface complexation model using the PHREEQC geochemical code. The drastic decrease in Se(IV) sorption on goethite in a multi-phase system is attributed to competition with dissolved silica released by bentonite. As with Si the HA compete with Se for sorption sites on goethite.  相似文献

Understanding the behaviour of the highly radiotoxic, long half-life radionuclide neptunium in the environment is important for the management of radioactively contaminated land and the safe disposal of radioactive wastes. Recent studies have identified that microbial reduction can reduce the mobility of neptunium via reduction of soluble Np(V) to poorly soluble Np(IV), with coupling to both Mn- and Fe(III)- reduction implicated in neptunyl reduction. To further explore these processes Mn(IV) as δMnO2 was added to sediment microcosms to create a sediment microcosm experiment “poised” under Mn-reducing conditions. Enhanced removal of Np(V) from solution occurred during Mn-reduction, and parallel X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) studies confirmed Np(V) reduction to Np(IV) commensurate with microbially-mediated Mn-reduction. Molecular ecology analysis of the XAS systems, which contained up to 0.2 mM Np showed no significant impact of elevated Np concentrations on the microbial population. These results demonstrate the importance of Mn cycling on Np biogeochemistry, and clearly highlight new pathways to reductive immobilisation for this highly radiotoxic actinide.  相似文献

The kinetics of radionuclide desorption from bentonite colloids and subsequent sorption onto fracture filling material can influence colloid-facilitated radionuclide migration in ground water. To shed light on the significance of these issues batch-type experiments using a cocktail of strong and weak sorbing radionuclides as well as FEBEX bentonite colloids in the presence of fracture filling material from Grimsel (Switzerland) under Grimsel ground water conditions have been conducted. Results show that tri- and tetravalent radionuclides, 232Th(IV), 242Pu(IV) and 243Am(III) are clearly colloid associated in contrast to 233U(VI), 237Np(V) and 99Tc(VII). Concentrations of colloid-borne 232Th(IV), 242Pu(IV) and 243Am(III) decrease after ∼100 h showing desorption from bentonite colloids while 233U(VI) and 99Tc(VII) concentrations remain constant over the entire experimental time of 7500 h thus showing no interaction either to colloids or to the fracture filling material. 232Th(IV) and 242Pu(IV) data yield a slower dissociation from colloids compared to 243Am(III) indicating stronger RN–colloid interaction. In the case of 237Np(V), a decrease in concentration after ∼300 h is observed which can be explained either by slow reduction to Np(IV) and subsequent sorption to mineral surfaces in accordance with the evolution of pe/pH and/or by a slow sorption onto the fracture filling material. No influence of the different fracture filling material size fractions (0.25–0.5 mm, 0.5–1 mm and 1–2 mm) can be observed implying reaction independence of the mineral surface area and mineralogical composition. The driving force of the observed metal ion desorption from colloids is binding to fracture filling material surfaces being in excess of the available colloid surface area (76:1, 55:1 and 44:1 for the 0.25–0.5 mm, 0.5–1 mm and 1–2 mm size fraction of the FFM, respectively).  相似文献

Minerals constitute a primary ecosystem control on organic C decomposition in soils, and therefore on greenhouse gas fluxes to the atmosphere. Secondary minerals, in particular, Fe and Al (oxyhydr)oxides—collectively referred to as “oxides” hereafter—are prominent protectors of organic C against microbial decomposition through sorption and complexation reactions. However, the impacts of Mn oxides on organic C retention and lability in soils are poorly understood. Here we show that hydrous Mn oxide (HMO), a poorly crystalline δ-MnO2, has a greater maximum sorption capacity for dissolved organic matter (DOM) derived from a deciduous forest composite Oi, Oe, and Oa horizon leachate (“O horizon leachate” hereafter) than does goethite under acidic (pH 5) conditions. Nonetheless, goethite has a stronger sorption capacity for DOM at low initial C:(Mn or Fe) molar ratios compared to HMO, probably due to ligand exchange with carboxylate groups as revealed by attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning transmission X-ray microscopy–near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy coupled with Mn mass balance calculations reveal that DOM sorption onto HMO induces partial Mn reductive dissolution and Mn reduction of the residual HMO. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy further shows increasing Mn(II) concentrations are correlated with increasing oxidized C (C=O) content (r = 0.78, P < 0.0006) on the DOM–HMO complexes. We posit that DOM is the more probable reductant of HMO, as Mn(II)-induced HMO dissolution does not alter the Mn speciation of the residual HMO at pH 5. At a lower C loading (2 × 102 μg C m?2), DOM desorption—assessed by 0.1 M NaH2PO4 extraction—is lower for HMO than for goethite, whereas the extent of desorption is the same at a higher C loading (4 × 102 μg C m?2). No significant differences are observed in the impacts of HMO and goethite on the biodegradability of the DOM remaining in solution after DOM sorption reaches steady state. Overall, HMO shows a relatively strong capacity to sorb DOM and resist phosphate-induced desorption, but DOM–HMO complexes may be more vulnerable to reductive dissolution than DOM–goethite complexes.  相似文献

采用批量平衡实验,研究了氯苯、1,4-二氯苯、1,2,4-三氯苯和1,2,4,5-四氯苯4种氯苯类化合物(CBs)在含不同特性的自然有机质(NOM)的5种沉积物上的吸附.解吸行为。研究结果表明,所有吸附等温线均表现出明显的非线性和吸附-解吸滞后现象。1,2,4-三氯苯在不同沉积物上吸附等温线的非线性程度以及在沉积物上解吸滞后效应都随着沉积物NON聚合度的增加而增大。另外,CBs溶质分子本身的性质也影响着其在沉积物上的吸附.解吸性能。4种CBs在同一种沉积物上吸附等温线的非线性程度及其解吸滞后系数按氯苯、1,4-二氯苯、1,2,4-三氯苯、1,2,4,5-四氯苯的顺序依次减弱,说明CBs的分子尺寸越大,其在沉积物上的吸附非线性程度和解吸滞后现象也越弱。  相似文献

This study presents the characterization of Pu-bearing precipitates and the results from uptake studies of Np and Pu on inorganic colloidal particulates in J-13 water from the Yucca Mountain site. Plutonium solubilities determined experimentally at pH values of 6, 7, and 8.5 are about two orders of magnitude higher than those calculated using the existing thermodynamic database indicating the influence of colloidal Pu(IV) species. Solid phase characterization using X-ray diffraction revealed primarily Pu(IV) in all precipitates formed at pH 6, 7, and 8.5. The solubility controlling Pu-bearing solids precipitated at ambient temperature consisted of amorphous Pu(OH)4(s) with several Pu–O distances between 2.3 and 2.7 Å that are characteristic for Pu(IV) colloids. High temperature (90 °C) increased solid phase crystallinity and produced Pu(IV) solids that contained Pu oxidation state impurities. X-ray absorption spectroscopic studies revealed diminished Pu–O and Pu–Pu distances that were slightly different from those in crystalline PuO2(s). A Pu–O bond of 1.86 Å was identified that is consistent with the plutonyl(V) distance of 1.81 Å in PuO2+(aq). Hematite, montmorillonite, and silica colloids were used for uptake experiments with 239Pu(V) and 237Np(V). The capacity of hematite to sorb Pu significantly exceeded that of montmorillonite and silica. A low desorption rate was indicative of highly stable Pu-hematite colloids, which may facilitate Pu transport to the accessible environment. Neptunium uptake on all mineral phases was far less than Pu(V) uptake suggesting that a potential Pu(V)–Pu(IV) reductive sorption process was involved. The temperature effect on Pu solubility and pseudocolloid formation is also discussed.  相似文献

Time-dependent sorption and desorption of Cd on calcite was studied over 210 days utilizing 109Cd as a tracer to distinguish between ‘labile’ and ‘non-labile’ forms of sorbed Cd. Stabilizing the calcite suspensions for 12 months under atmospheric PCO2 and controlled temperature was necessary to reliably follow Cd dynamics following initial sorption. Results revealed time-dependant Cd sorption and marked desorption hysteresis by calcite under environmentally relevant conditions. Data obtained were fitted to a first-order kinetic model and a concentric shell diffusion model. Both models described the progressive transfer of Cd2+ to a less reactive form within calcite and subsequent desorption of Cd subject to different initial contact times. The kinetic model provided a better fit to the combined sorption and desorption data (R2 = 0.992). It differentiates between two ‘pools’ of sorbed Cd2+ on calcite, ‘labile’ and ‘non-labile’, in which labile sorbed Cd is in immediate equilibrium with the free Cd2+ ion activity in solution whereas non-labile Cd is kinetically restricted. For the diffusion model (R2 = 0.959), the rate constants describing Cd dynamics in calcite produced a half-life for Cd desorption of ∼175 d, for release to a ‘zero-sink’ solution. Results from this study allow comment on the likely mechanisms occurring at the calcite surface following long-term Cd sorption.  相似文献

Non-conservative behavior of dissolved inorganic phosphate (DIP) in estuaries is generally ascribed to desorption from iron and aluminum (hydr)oxides with increasing salinity. Here, we assess this hypothesis by simulating the reversible adsorption of phosphate onto a model oxide (goethite) along physico-chemical gradients representative of surface and subsurface estuaries. The simulations are carried out using a surface complexation model (SCM), which represents the main aqueous speciation and adsorption reactions of DIP, plus the ionic strength-dependent coulombic interactions in solution and at the mineral-solution interface. According to the model calculations, variations in pH and salinity alone are unlikely to explain the often reported production of DIP in surface estuaries. In particular, increased aqueous complexation of phosphate by Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions with increasing salinity is offset by the formation of ternary Mg-phosphate surface complexes and the drop in electrical potential at the mineral-water interface. However, when taking into account the downstream decrease in the abundance of sorption sites, the model correctly simulates the observed release of DIP in the Scheldt estuary. The sharp increase in pH accompanying the admixing of seawater to fresh groundwater should also cause desorption of phosphate from iron oxyhydroxides during seawater intrusion in coastal aquifers. As for surface estuaries, the model calculations indicate that significant DIP release additionally requires a reduction in the phosphate sorption site density. In anoxic aquifers, this can result from the supply of seawater sulfate and the subsequent reductive dissolution of iron oxyhydroxides coupled to microbial sulfate reduction.  相似文献

Sorption and desorption behaviour of methane, carbon dioxide, and mixtures of the two gases has been studied on a set of well-characterised coals from the Argonne Premium Coal Programme. The coal samples cover a maturity range from 0.25% to 1.68% vitrinite reflectance. The maceral compositions were dominated by vitrinite (85% to 91%). Inertinite contents ranged from 8% to 11% and liptinite contents around 1% with one exception (Illinois coal, 5%). All sorption experiments were performed on powdered (−100 mesh), dry coal samples.Single component sorption/desorption measurements were carried out at 22 °C up to final pressures around 51 bar (5.1 MPa) for CO2 (subcritical state) and 110 bar (11 MPa) for methane.The ratios of the final sorption capacities for pure CO2 and methane (in molar units) on the five coal samples vary between 1.15 and 3.16. The lowest ratio (1.15) was found for the North Dakota Beulah-Zap lignite (VRr=0.25%) and the highest ratios (2.7 and 3.16) were encountered for the low-rank coals (VRr 0.32% and 0.48%) while the ratio decreases to 1.6–1.7 for the highest rank coals in this series.Desorption isotherms for CH4 and CO2 were measured immediately after the corresponding sorption isotherms. They generally lie above the sorption isotherms. The degree of hysteresis, i.e. deviation of sorption and desorption isotherms, varies and shows no dependence on coal rank.Adsorption tests with CH4/CO2 mixtures were conducted to study the degree of preferential sorption of these two gases on coals of different rank. These experiments were performed on dry coals at 45 °C and pressures up to 180 bar (18 MPa). For the highest rank samples of this sequence preferential sorption behaviour was “as expected”, i.e. preferential adsorption of CO2 and preferential desorption of CH4 were observed. For the low rank samples, however, preferential adsorption of CH4 was found in the low pressure range and preferential desorption of CO2 over the entire pressure range.Follow-up tests for single gas CO2 sorption measurements consistently showed a significant increase in sorption capacity for re-runs on the same sample. This phenomenon could be due to extraction of volatile coal components by CO2 in the first experiment. Reproducibility tests with methane and CO2 using fresh sample material in each experiment did not show this effect.  相似文献

The effect of dissolved organic matter (DOM) on Am(III), Pu(IV), Np(V), and U(VI) sorption was investigated with natural water (pH ∼8) and zeolitized tuff samples collected from the Rainier Mesa tunnel system, Nevada Test Site, where the USA detonated underground nuclear tests prior to 1992. Perched vadose zone water at Rainier Mesa has high levels of DOM as a result of microbial degradation of mining debris (diesel, wood, etc.). The Am and Pu sorption Kds were up to two orders of magnitude lower in water with high DOM (15-19 mg C/L) compared to the same water with DOM removed (<0.4 mg C/L) or in naturally low DOM (0.2 mg C/L) groundwater. In contrast, Kds of Np and U were less affected by DOM at these solution conditions. Uranium sorption decreased as a result of high dissolved inorganic C (DIC) resulting from microbial degradation of DOM. Thermodynamic model predictions, based on actinide-humic acid stability constants available in the literature, are in general agreement with measured Kd data, correctly predicting the effects of DIC and DOM on actinide retardation. This agreement is encouraging to future modeling efforts and suggests that effects of DOM and DIC can be incorporated into reactive transport modeling predictions. The Am and Pu transport rates in Rainier Mesa tunnel waters will be substantially faster as a result of the elevated DOM levels. Low diffusion rates of actinide-DOM macromolecular complexes may focus Pu and Am transport into fractures and minimize retardation via matrix diffusion. The resulting transport behavior will affect actinide distribution patterns and associated risk estimates.  相似文献

Sorption of phosphorus (P) onto particulate surfaces significantly influences dissolved P concentrations in aquatic environments. We present results of a study contrasting the sorption behavior of several dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) compounds and phosphate onto three commonly occurring iron (oxyhydr)oxides (Feox): ferrihydrite, goethite, and hematite. The DOP compounds were chosen to represent a range of molecular weights and structures, and include: adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), glucose-6-phosphate (G6P), and aminoethylphosphonic acid (AEP).All P compounds displayed decreasing sorption as a function of crystallinity of the Feox substrate, with ferrihydrite adsorbing the most, hematite the least. In general, maximum sorption density decreased with increasing molecular weight of P compound; sorption of G6P onto goethite and hematite excepted. P compound size and structure, and the nature of the Feox substrate all appear to play a role dictating relative sorption capacity. Failure of a simple, 1-step sorption-desorption model to describe the data suggests that P sorption cannot be explained by a simple balance between sorption and desorption. Instead, the data are consistent with a 2-step sorption model consisting of an initial rapid surface sorption, followed by a slow, solid-state diffusion of P from surface sites into particle interiors. Desorption experiments provide additional support for the 2-step sorption model.Without exception, DOP compounds showed less efficient sorption than did orthophosphate. This suggests that in aquatic systems enriched in reactive Feox, whether as suspended particulates in the water column or in benthic sediments, DOP bioavailability may exceed that of orthophosphate. Since biological uptake of P from DOP requires enzymatic cleavage of orthophosphate, a system enriched in DOP relative to orthophosphate may impact ecosystem community structure.  相似文献

Complete sorption isotherm characteristics of methane and CO2 were studied on fourteen sub-bituminous to high-volatile bituminous Indian Gondwana coals. The mean vitrinite reflectance values of the coal samples are within the range of 0.64% to 1.30% with varying maceral composition. All isotherms were conducted at 30 °C on dry, powdered coal samples up to a maximum experimental pressure of ~ 7.8 MPa and 5.8 MPa for methane and CO2, respectively.The nature of the isotherms varied widely within the experimental pressure range with some of the samples remained under-saturated while the others attained saturation. The CO2 to methane adsorption ratios decreased with the increase in experimental pressure and the overall variation was between 4:1 and 1.5:1 for most of the coals. For both methane and CO2, the lower-ranked coal samples generally exhibited higher sorption affinity compared to the higher-ranked coals. However, sorption capacity indicates a U-shaped trend with rank. Significant hysteresis was observed between the ad/desorption isotherms for CO2. However, with methane, hysteresis was either absent or insignificant. It was also observed that the coal maceral compositions had a significant impact on the sorption capacities for both methane and CO2.
