Dissolution of uranium dioxide microspheres in carbonate and hydrogen peroxide solutions

Creator:

Adams, Timothy G.

Abstract:

Uranium dioxide has been used in industry both as a fuel for power reactors and as a target for the production of radioisotopes. One of the most important radioisotopes produced using these targets is molybdenum-99 (Mo-99, 65.94hr half-life), which is the parent isotope to technetium-99m (Tc-99m, 6.01hr half-life), a radioisotope...

The role of iron-oxides in U(VI) adsorption and the kinetics of contaminant organic reduction

Creator:

Logue, Brian A.

Abstract:

Contaminant transport in ground water is an important environmental process that affects a host of natural systems. Transport of contaminants is affected by many processes, including aqueous complexation, adsorption, and redox reactions. One of the most important components of an aquifer that controls transport is iron-oxide. In this study, the...
