Partitioning of u in bottom sediments of mayak reservoir R-17

Abstract

Partitioning of 234,238U in bottom sediments of Production Association Mayak reservoir R-17 was investigated. Uranium isotopes were found in all fractions carried out by sequential extraction. The maximum content was found in the fraction associated with carbonates (29–33%). In the conditions of the V-17 reservoir of the Mayak Production Association, uranium is washed out of bottom sediments by surface waters. It can be assumed that the mechanism of radionuclide migration will be ion transport of carbonate complexes.
Key words: PA "Mayak", 234, 238U, sequential extraction, bottom sediments.
