Modeling of the Savannah River Site High Level Waste
Three evaporators are used to reduce the volume of waste in the waste tank farm at the Savannah River Site (SRS). Evaporators are crucial operation in the SRS waste processing and management system. Using the Aspen Custom Modeler (ACM) software package marketed by Aspen Technology, Inc., the evaporator dynamic flowsheet models have been constructed to simulate the behavior of the evaporator sy...
متن کاملAdsorption of zinc onto bed sediments of the River Ganga: adsorption models and kinetics
A laboratory study was performed to study the effects of various operating factors, viz. initial metal ion concentration, solution pH, amount of sediment, contact time, particle size and temperature on the adsorption of zinc ions onto the bed sediments of the River Ganga (India). The equilibrium time was found to be of the order of 60 min. The adsorption curves are smooth and continuous leading...
متن کاملIodide Oxidizing Activity of Bacteria from Subsurface Sediments of the Savannah River Site, SC, U.S.A
129I is a major by-product of nuclear fission that is of concern because of its extremely long half-life (~16 million yrs), perceived toxicity through bioaccumulation, and the increasing inventory of this radionuclide worldwide. Relatively high concentrations of iodate (27.3%) and organoiodine (23.9%) are present in a 129I-conatminated aquifer at the Savannah River Site (SRS), SC, U.S.A. To det...
متن کاملSurface complexation modeling of proton and Cd adsorption onto an algal cell wall.
This study quantifies Cd adsorption onto the cell wall of the algal species Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata by applying a surface complexation approach to model the observed adsorption behavior. We use potentiometric titrations to determine deprotonation constants and site concentrations for the functional groups on the algal cell wall. Adsorption and desorption kinetics experiments illustrate ...
متن کاملSurface complexation modeling of zinc sorption onto ferrihydrite.
A previous study involving lead(II) [Pb(II)] sorption onto ferrihydrite over a wide range of conditions highlighted the advantages of combining molecular- and macroscopic-scale investigations with surface complexation modeling to predict Pb(II) speciation and partitioning in aqueous systems. In this work, an extensive collection of new macroscopic and spectroscopic data was used to assess the a...
