Migration models of neptunium and americium in groundwater under the present condition of humic substances

Tanaka, Tadao; Sakamoto, Yoshiaki; Sawada, Hiroshi; Ogawa, Hiromichi

JAERI-Conf 2003-010, p.134 - 141, 2003/09

We have performed migration experiments of Np(V) and Am(III) for crushed granite, under the coexistent condition with humic acid substance. As for Np, the periodical concentration changes in the breakthrough curve and the migration velocity of Np passed through the column were not affected by the coexistence of the humic substance. As for Am, on the other hand, the periodical concentration changes in the breakthrough curve were affected by the humic substance concentration. The migration behavior of Am passed through the present column system could be expressed by a migration model taking account of the non-equilibrium state.

Migration data of $$^{90}$$Sr,$$^{237}$$Np and $$^{238}$$Pu in natural aquifer were collected by a field test, which was performed in an aquifer at 30 m under ground surface of the field test site. Migration parameters for analysis of the results obtained the field test were measured by laboratory column tests and batch tests. Diffusion coefficient corresponding to water velocity was determined from the relationship between water velocity and diffusion length, which obtained from the column tests. Distribution coefficient was determined by considering confident ability of data, test conditions, and environmental conditions. One dimensional migration behavior of the radionuclides in aquifer, calculated by using the migration parameters obtained from the batch and column tests, agreed with the results obtained from the field test. It was confirmed that the migration behavior of alpha-nuclides could be evaluated by applying the conventional equation for evaluating the radionuclide migration and the migration parameters obtained from laboratory tests.

Evaluation of radionuclide migration in geologic media is of great importance in safety assessment for shallow land disposal specially for TRU nuclides because of inadequate data based on field test. As a cooperative research between JAERI and CIRP, a field test of radionuclide migration was conducted under natural condition using Sr-90, Np-237 and Pu-238 to obtain migration data of the radionuclides in actual aerated layer under natural rainfall condition. Values of input parameters to an existing evaluation equation of nuclide migration were determined on the basis of the results of laboratory experiments of batch and column methods and field investigation. Migration distribution of the radionuclides calculated with the determined values showed reasonable agreement with the measured distribution of the field test. This confirmed an applicability of the evaluation equation for radionuclide migration to actual aerated layer under natural condition.

Migration experiments of $$^{237}$$Np(V) and $$^{241}$$Am(III) have been performed using a column system, to investigate migration behavior of Np and Am through a column packed with loess, taken from Shanxi, China. Adsorption mechanisms of Np and Am on the loess were examined by a chemical extraction method. In the case of the Np, most of Np adsorbed on the influent edge of the column. The Np adsorbed on the loess was mainly controlled by surface complexation. However, the migration of Np in the loess media could be roughly evaluated by using the distribution coefficient. In the case of the Am, particulate Am species was formed in the influent solution and moved in the column. The Am adsorbed on the loess was controlled by irreversible reactions. The migration behavior of particulate Am in the loess media could be expressed by the filtration theory.

Migration behavior of stable and radioactive strontium in natural aquifer

Tanaka, Tadao; Mukai, Masayuki; Maeda, Toshikatsu; Munakata, Masahiro; Matsumoto, Junko; Ogawa, Hiromichi; Bamba, Tsunetaka*; Wang, Z.*; Yang, Y.*; Zhao, Y.*

Proceedings of International Symposium on Radioecology and Environmental Dosimetry, p.179 - 184, 2003/00

Migration behaviors of stable strontium element and radioactive nuclide strontium 90 in natural aquifer were studied by a field test, which was performed in the aquifer loess zone at 30 m under the ground surface of the field test site of China Institute for Radiation Protection. The migration behavior of stable strontium was a little different from that of $$^{90}$$Sr. The difference was evaluated by applying the distribution coefficient considering Sr and coexistent ion concentrations. Migration behavior of radionuclide in natural environment has been generally demonstrated on field tests without radioactive tracers and/or large-scale column tests with radioactive tracers. Such tests seem to be valuable to improve reliability of the migratory evaluation.

Adsorption mechanisms and models of $$^{85}$$Sr(II), $$^{237}$$Np(V), $$^{238}$$Pu(IV) and $$^{241}$$Am(III) on the loess were investigated from their adsorption and desorption properties. The distribution coefficient of $$^{85}$$Sr and $$^{237}$$Np was 2 - 3 orders of magnitude smaller than that of $$^{238}$$Pu and $$^{241}$$Am. The adsorption of $$^{85}$$Sr and $$^{237}$$Np was mainly controlled by the ion exchange reaction. On the other hand, the adsorption of $$^{238}$$Pu and $$^{241}$$Am was mostly controlled by the selective chemical reactions with Fe and Mn oxyhydroxide/oxide and humic substances. On the basis of the experimental results, several types of adsorption models of the radionuclides, considering elemental concentrations, adsorption mechanisms and kinetics, were proposed for setting up the analytical systems of radionuclide migration in the loess media.

Radiochimica Acta, 90(9-11), p.665 - 669, 2002/12

 Times Cited Count:53 Percentile:93.16(Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear)

Sorption and desorption experiments of Np on magnetite and hematite under aerobic and anaerobic conditions were carried out to investigate the possibility of reduction of Np(V) to Np(IV) on the surfave of iron oxides including Fe(II). The results indicated that Np sorption mechanism on magnetite under anaerobic condition was completely different from that under aerobic condition. The evidence of the presence of Np(IV) on magnetite surface after sorption was obtained from the extraction experiment with TTA/xylene solution.

Sorption behavior of plutonium(IV) onto soils in the presence of humic acid

Tanaka, Tadao; Nagao, Seiya; Sakamoto, Yoshiaki; Ogawa, Hiromichi

Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 39(Suppl.3), p.524 - 527, 2002/11

Influence of humic acid on the sorption of Pu onto a coastal sand, which does not sorb humic acid, and an ando soil, which sorbs humic acid very well, was examined with respect to molecular sizes of humic acid. Sorption affinity of Pu for the coastal sand decreased with increasing humic acid concentration. As to the ando soil, the sorption affinity of Pu in the presence of humic acid was larger than that in the absence of humic acid, in low humic acid concentration range. These results suggest that apparent sorption affinity of Pu on the soils is dependent on the complexation ability with humic acid and the sorption affinity of the resulting humic complexes. Concentration profiles of Pu in each size fraction of solution before and after the sorption experiment were obtained by ultrafiltration technique. It was found that the complexation and sorption properties of humic acid are dependent on its molecular size and the important molecular size relating to the complexation and sorption properties tends to shift into smaller size ranges with increasing humic acid concentration.

In situ ATR-FTIR spectroscopy for functional groups of humic substances complexing with metal ions

Tanaka, Tadao; Sakamoto, Yoshiaki; Ogawa, Hiromichi

Genshiryoku Bakkuendo Kenkyu, 9(1), p.29 - 34, 2002/09

To obtain structural information on functional groups of humic substances complexing with metal ions, infrared (IR) spectral analysis of the humic substances dissolving in aqueous solutions has been studied by ATR (Attenuated Total Reflection) method. By using the ATR method, IR spectral shifts of humic substance due to complexation with metal ions were observed. The observation provided with information on complexation kinetics, and on characteristics of functional groups depending on solvent properties, such as pH and solute concentrations. These information was difficult to be obtained by conventional FTIR spectroscopy using powdered humic substances. The obtained results show that IR spectral shifts on the functional groups of the humic substances complexed with metal ions could be possibly characterized ${it in situ}$ by using the ATR-FTIR spectroscopy.

To study the interactions between the induction of radiation-induced apoptosis and trace elements kinetics, human leukemia cells were irradiated in vitro by $$^{60}$$Co $$gamma$$ rays, after which the cells were evaluated for the detection of apoptosis and trace element imaging was carried out. The frequency of apoptosis was obtained by microscopic assay using TUNEL staining. The trace element distribution in the cell was determined by micro-PIXE. In the early phase of apoptosis, the maximum level of Fe accumulation was observed in the cell stroma. In the mid to end phase, Fe accumulation was diminished, and instead, Ca accumulation increased and Zn decreased in the nucleus. There appear to be two steps for the development of apoptosis: (1) the signaling from cell stroma to nucleus by Fe or an Fe-containing enzyme; and (2) the degeneration of the nucleus by Ca-dependent enzyme, and release of Zn from digested nucleus. Those strong accumulations may be new markers for apoptosis.

Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy of functional groups of humic acid dissolving in aqueous solution

Tanaka, Tadao; Nagao, Seiya; Ogawa, Hiromichi

Analytical Sciences (CD-ROM), 17(Suppl.), p.1081 - 1084, 2002/03

Structural information of humic acid dissolving in aqueous solution has been studied by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. Two types of humic acid fractions were prepared: one is dominated by aliphatic structure and another is dominated with aromatic structure. The functional groups of both fractions have been characterized with respect to their ATR-FTIR spectral structures (ATR spectra) measured in pH range of 2 - 10. The ATR spectra were compared with the infrared spectra of the freeze-dried humic acid fractions, which were obtained using transmission Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy with KBr pellet (KBr spectra) and using diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRS spectra). In a comparison between spectra obtained from the three infrared spectroscopic methods, the major absorptions of the ATR spectra for both fractions are in well agreement with those of the KBr spectra and the DRS spectra, each other. These show that the functional groups of the humic acid dissolving in aqueous solution could characterize by using the ATR-FTIR spectroscopy.
