Amelioration of soils contaminated with radionuclides: Exploiting biodiversity to minimise or maximise soil to plant transfer
There is much current interest in managing and manipulating radionuclide transfer from soils to plants, either for ‘safe’ crops or for phytoextraction of radionuclide contaminated soils. Potentially there is biodiversity in plant uptake that might aid these efforts. We have established the effects of phylogeny (evolutionary history) on the uptake of numerous heavy metal and nutrient elements. H...
متن کاملBioreduction of uranium in a contaminated soil column.
The bioreduction of soluble uranium [U(VI)] to sparingly soluble U(IV) species is an attractive remedial technology for contaminated soil and groundwater due to the potential for immobilizing uranium and impeding its migration in subsurface environments. This manuscript describes a column study designed to simulate a three-step strategy proposed for the remediation of a heavily contaminated sit...
متن کاملInfluence of the soil bioavailability of radionuclides on the transfer of uranium and thorium to mushrooms.
The soil-mushroom transfer of thorium and uranium was analyzed in two ecologically similar but geographically separated Spanish ecosystems by means of the transfer factor, TF. Uranium TF values were in the range 0.043-0.49, and thorium TF values in the range 0.030-0.62. These values were similar to those of (90)Sr, (239+240)Pu, and (241)Am found previously in the same ecosystems. Given the low ...
متن کاملElectrokinetic Remediation of Uranium Contaminated Soil by Ion Exchange Membranes
Abstract—The contamination of significant quantities of soils and sediments with uranium and other actinide elements as a result of nuclear activity poses many environmental risks. The electrokinetic process is one of the most promising remediation techniques for sludge, sediment, and saturated or unsaturated soils contaminated with heavy metals and radionuclides. However, secondary waste is a ...
متن کاملmorphology, geochemistry, mineralogy, and micromorphology of soils of hormozgan province in relation to parent materials
ویژگی های زمین شیمیایی، کانی شناسی، و میکرومورفولوژیکی خاک ها و سنگ مادر مربوطه در منطقه بین بخش های جنوبی زاگرس و خلیج فارس تا دریای عمان(استان هرمزگان، ایران) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. هدف های این مطالعه شناسایی تغییرات در خصوصیات فیزیکی، شیمیایی، و ترکیب کانی شناسی خاک، مطالعه میکرومورفولوژی و تکامل خاک، و بررسی توزیع عنصر خاک بر اساس هوازدگی، پروسه های خاک و زمین شناسی جهت توصیف اثرات مواد مادر...
