Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike earlier books in this series, this review describes the selection of chemical thermodynamic data for species of two elements, neptunium and plutonium. Although this came about more by circumstance than design, it has allowed for a more consistent approach to chemical interpretation than might have occurred in two separate treatments. It has also drawn attention to cases where the available data do not show expected parallels, and where further work may be useful to confirm or refute apparent differences in the behaviour of neptunium and plutonium.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report combines two separate studies dealing with different aspects of the behavior of neptunium in oxidizing aqueous systems. The goal of both studies is to obtain a better understanding of what would control the concentration of neptunium in oxidizing groundwaters upon release from a geologic high-level waste repository. 237Np has a very long half-life, and consequently tends to appear as a component of concern in long-term dose calculations. Part A examines the formation of NpO2 [Np(IV) oxide] from aqueous Np(V) under oxidizing conditions, using elevated temperature as a means of accelerating putative slow kinetics. According to thermodynamic data, NpO2 should be the stable Np solid, even though Np is generally thought to be mainly some form of Np(V) under oxidizing conditions. The first observed precipitation of this solid from aqueous solution under any conditions is reported. This result suggests, but does not prove, that long-term very slow formation of NpO2 might be an important long-term control on neptunium migration. Even at 200{sup o}C, the kinetics can be sluggish on typical experimental time scales. Though not reported in Part A, a similar situation may exist for Pu, and NpO2 and PuO2 may potentially form solid solutions. Under reducing conditions, UO2 might join in. Part B examines the interaction of Np(V) with the uranium mineral schoepite. Is neptunium incorporated into the crystal structure as a solid-solution component, or does it just sorb onto the mineral surface? The results presented here suggest that it basically just sorbs onto the surface, which would be a less effective process in limiting neptunium migration. This is not a surprising result, as schoepite is a relatively simple solid of U(VI). There is no obvious means to compensate for the charge difference between U(VI) and Np(V) without introducing unfavorable energetics. However, the results reported here do not rule out a possible substitution of Np(VI) in schoepite or other U(VI) minerals. This may be significant especially at higher pH, where the formation of Np(VI) species is more favored relative to Np(V). Both studies reported here suggest that there is much to learn about the actual long-term behavior of Np in the geologic environment.

Download or read book Measured Solubilities and Speciations from Oversaturation Experiments of Neptunium Plutonium and Americium in UE 25p No 1 Well Water from the Yucca Mountain Region written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solubility and speciation are important in understanding aqueous radionuclide transport through the geosphere. They define the source term for transport retardation processes such as sorption and colloid formation. Solubility and speciation data are useful in verifying the validity of geochemical codes that are a part of predictive transport models. Results are presented from solubility and speciation experiments of 237NpO2, 239Pu{sup 4+}, and 241Am{sup 3+}/Nd{sup 3+} in a modified UE-25p No. 1 groundwater (from the Yucca Mountain region, Nevada, which is being investigated as a potential high-level nuclear waste disposal site) at two different temperatures (25° and 60°C) and three pH values (6.0, 7.0, 8.5). The solubility-controlling steady-state solids were identified and the speciation and/or oxidation states present in the supernatant solutions were determined. The neptunium solubility decreased with increasing temperature and pH. Plutonium concentrations significantly decreased with increasing temperature at pH 6 and 7. The concentration at pH 8.5 hardly decreased at all with increasing temperature. At both temperatures the concentrations were highest at pH 8.5, lowest at pH 7, and in between at pH 6. For the americium/neodymium solutions, the solubility decreased significantly with increasing temperature and increased somewhat with increasing pH.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solubility and speciation are important in understanding aqueous radionuclide transport through the geosphere. Results are compared from solubility and speciation experiments from oversaturation and undersaturation of 237NpO{sub 2{sup +}}, 239Pu{sup 4+}, and 241Am{sup 3+}/Nd{sup 3+} in a modified UE-25p-1 groundwater (from the Yucca Mountain region, Nevada, which is being investigated as a potential high-level nuclear waste disposal site) at 60 C and three pH values (6.0, 7.0, 8.5). In the oversaturation experiments, the solubility-controlling steady-state solids were identified and the speciation and/or oxidation states present in the supernatant solutions were determined. The characterized solids were then reintroduced into fresh solutions of the modified UE-25p-1 groundwater to approach the steady state from undersaturation. For the undersaturation experiments, the solubility-controlling steady-state solids were also identified and the speciation and/or oxidation states present in the supernatant solutions were determined. The Np solubility decreased with increasing pH in both the over- and undersaturation experiments. The steady-state concentrations from the two experiments agreed to within an order of magnitude. Pu concentrations from over- and undersaturation agree very well in the pH 6 and 7 experiments. The pH 8.5 oversaturation experiment resulted in a steady-state concentration one order of magnitude above its undersaturation counterpart. For the Am/Nd solutions, the pH 6 and pH 7 experiments resulted in equivalent steady-state concentrations from both over and undersaturation. The pH 8.5 oversaturation experiment was 100 times more soluble than its undersaturation counterpart. 48 refs.
