Number of employees
Researcher 1 person
Recruitment field
Research Theme:
Ra which exists in the mineral Study about the physico-chemistry-like special quality of the isotope
(Summary)
We are working on environmental restoration business of uranium mine which had ended mine activity at Ningyo-toge Environmental Engineering Center at present.
It’s a very important problem for safe and efficient environmental restoration business to make clear the factor which ruled behavior of radioactive materials in the water conservation area in Ningyo-toge basin.
Minerals containing naturally occurring uranium and thorium have isotopes of radium produced as progeny nuclides within their decay series. Isotopes of radium present in minerals are considered to have different physicochemical properties, reflecting the history (such as the mode of disintegration and the number of disintegration etc.) until they are produced. Therefore, in this study, by investigating the existence state of radium isotope in minerals, it contributes to making clear of the difference in elution behavior between radium isotopes. Also, a research of the difference in the existence state of radium isotopes between different kinds of minerals gives important knowledge when choosing matrix of solidified body of radioactive waste, and is important for promoting uranium mine environmental restoration project.
