Abstract | ||
In this study, we evaluated the absorption/desorption of uranium (U) in pure soil environment using continuous column reactor. We additionally investigated the absorption/desorption mechanism of U on vivianite surface in molecular scale using quantum calculation. We observed that below 0.1 | ||
