Sustainable remediation methods for metals and radionuclides
- Glossary Biomineralization A process by which living organisms produce minerals. - Chernobyl Ukrainian city site of the largest nuclear power plant accident in history. - Cut-off-wall Underground structure designed to prevent the flow of water. - DART Deep aquifer remediation tool. - Diffusion Movement of ions and molecules from places of higher concentration to places of lower concentration. - Electrochemical remediation Remediation technologies comprising electrochemical transport and transformation methods. - Electrokinetic screens Structures used to prevent radionuclides from diffusing from the polluted area into the environment. - Electromigration Transport of charged ions or ion complexes in solution. - Electroosmosis Movement of liquid relative to a charged stationary surface, - Electrophoresis Movement of charged particles relative to a stationary fluid. - Enhanced electrochemical remediation Use of pH control and additives to improve removal efficiency. - EURT East UralsGlossary Biomineralization A process by which living organisms produce minerals. - Chernobyl Ukrainian city site of the largest nuclear power plant accident in history. - Cut-off-wall Underground structure designed to prevent the flow of water. - DART Deep aquifer remediation tool. - Diffusion Movement of ions and molecules from places of higher concentration to places of lower concentration. - Electrochemical remediation Remediation technologies comprising electrochemical transport and transformation methods. - Electrokinetic screens Structures used to prevent radionuclides from diffusing from the polluted area into the environment. - Electromigration Transport of charged ions or ion complexes in solution. - Electroosmosis Movement of liquid relative to a charged stationary surface, - Electrophoresis Movement of charged particles relative to a stationary fluid. - Enhanced electrochemical remediation Use of pH control and additives to improve removal efficiency. - EURT East Urals Radioactive Trail area contaminated due to a nuclear accident. - Natural attenuation (NA) Remediation relying entirely on natural processes. - Permeable reactive barriers Passive in situ treatment zones of reactive material that degrades or immobilizes contaminants as groundwater flows through it. - Phytoremediation Soil remediation using living plants and their associated microorganisms. - Radionuclide or radioisotope An atom with an unstable nucleus whose excess energy is available to be imparted to a newly-created radiation particle within the nucleus or to an atomic electron. - Total material requirement (TMR) Sum of domestic and imported primary natural resources and their hidden flows.…
