Research in actinide geochemistry: Do we need speciation information at the molecular level?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 March 2011
Abstract
Radionuclide sorption to rock or sediment surfaces in the vicinity of a nuclear waste reposi-tory contributes significantly to the overall safety performance of a given disposal concept. State-of-the-artspeciation techniques as laser - and X-ray spectroscopy are becoming more and more involved into the elucidation of sorption mechanisms and to the quantification of surface speciation. They are extremely valuable tools to gain fundamental understanding as a basis for the development of geochemical sorption models which in turn are needed to predict ra-dionuclide behaviour in the environment.
