Isosaccharinic acid is a cellulose degradation product that can form in low-level nuclear waste repositories and is known to form strong complexes with many elements, including actinides, disposed of in these repositories. We (1) reviewed the available data for deprotonation and lactonisation constants of isosaccharinic acid, and the isosaccharinate binding constants for Ca, Fe(III), Th, U(IV), U(VI), Np(IV), Pu(IV), and Am(III), (2) summarized complexation constant values for predicting actinide behavior in geologic repositories in the presence of isosaccharinate, and (3) outlined additional studies to acquire reliable thermodynamic data where the available data are inadequate.

A Thermodynamic model for the solubility of HfO $_{2}$ (am) in the aqueous K $^{+}$ - HCO $_{3}$ $^{-}$ - CO $_{3}$ $^{2-}$ - OH $^{-}$ - H $_{2}$ O system

Solubility of HfO $_{2}$ (am) was determined as a function of KHCO $_{3}$ concentrations ranging from 0.001 mol.kg $^{-1}$ to 0.1 mol.kg $^{-1}$ . The solubility of HfO $_{2}$ (am) increased dramatically with the increase in KHCO $_{3}$ concentrations, indicating that Hf(IV) makes strong complexes with carbonate. Thermodynamic equilibrium constants for the formation of Hf-carbonate complexes were determined using both the Pitzer and SIT models. The dramatic increase in Hf concentrations with the increase in KHCO $_{3}$ concentrations can best be described by the formation of Hf(OH-) $_{2}$ (CO $_{3}$ ) $_{2}$ $^{2-}$ and Hf(CO $_{3}$ ) $_{5}$ $^{6-}$ . The log $_{10}$ K $^{0}$ values for the reactions [Hf $^{4+}$ + 2 CO $_{3}$ $^{2-}$ +2 OH $^{-}$ Hf(OH) $_{2}$ (CO $_{3}$ ) $_{2}$ $^{2-}$ ] and [Hf $^{4+}$ + 5 CO $_{3}$ $^{2-}$ Hf(CO $_{3}$ ) $_{5}$ $^{6-}$ ], based on the SIT model, were determined to be 44.53 0.46 and 41.53 0.46, respectively.
