Abstract
The paper studies the adsorption features of 239Pu in phyllitic slate and clay media through static experiment method. The two different geo-media were collected from a site for disposing very low level waste (VLLW) as experimental samples. Experimental results have shown that an adsorption equilibrium time of 239Pu in phyllitic slate and clay is approximately 10 days, and the adsorption coefficient (Kd) B Bvalues of phyllitic slate and clay are about 6000Â ml/g and 2700Â ml/g, respectively. The experimental result of particle size effect indicates when adsorption of plutonium in particle samples increases, the KBdB values of these two geo-media increase while the particles decrease in size. And the experimental impact on aqueous phase pH value reveals that Kd of 239Pu in creases at higher aqueous phase pH value, illustrating stronger adsorption capacity. Experimental data are also measured through the curve fitting, KBdB values are thus obtained theoretically.
