Abstract
The article presents the results of the study of the sorption of 90Sr, 137Cs, 233U, 237Np, 239Pu,and 241Am radionuclides from model groundwater, model leachate of aluminophosphate glass and Na2HPO4 solutions of different concentrations on bentonite clays of Kamalinskoye (Krasnoyarsk Territory), Desyaty Khutor (Republic of Khakassia), and Dinozavrovoye (Republic of Kazakhstan) deposits. We determined that the presence of aluminophosphate glass leachate in the liquid phase reduced the sorption activity of the studied clays towards caesium. The distribution coefficients of strontium depend more on the clay properties than on the liquid phase composition. However, with increasing concentration of phosphate ion, we observed an increase in the strength of sorbed strontium retention by clay. The sorption of uranium, neptunium, plutonium and americium, increased in the presence of components leached from the aluminophosphate glass-like matrix, and the strength of their fixation by clay increased.
