Description

Apparent stability constants of Eu(III)- and Am(III)-humates determined at various pH (4.8 to 8) and supporting electrolyte concentration (0.02 to 1 mol/l), indicate that the humate complexes may be dominant species in the aquifer. Distribution coefficients of Eu(III) and Am(III) between kaolinite and solution phase were affected strongly by the presence of humic acid in the solution. Adsorption of humic acid may be an important factor controlling fixation of actinides(III) on mineral surfaces
