Abstract
Abstract Radionuclide migration is an essential process in the performance and safety assessments of radioactive waste repository. This study investigates uranium migration in Beishan granite using the continuous column method, focusing on the effects of flow rate, eluent pH, and carbonate. Experimental parameters were used to perform COMSOL simulations of the migration process. The findings reveal that mechanical dispersion plays a predominant role in uranium migration in the granite column. Notably, the impact of adsorption on migration appears to be limited, likely due to the brief contact time in the experimental setup. The study successfully demonstrates the capability of COMSOL in simulating radionuclide migration, offering significant insights for the performance and safety assessments of repository.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
