ABSTRACTThe speciation of UO22+ and UO22+/ TBP mixtures has been investigated in solution and intercalated with the reference smectite clay SAz-1 using x-ray absorption, Raman, andluminescence spectroscopies. Neither aquated UO22+ nor its TBP complex undergoes any detectable changes in uranium oxidation state on intercalation. Further, at the pH values employed in this work, there is no evidence for hydrolysis of the uranium species to generate dimeric or higher order uranium oligomers. However, we do find indications that the structures of the solution complexes are altered on intercalation, particularly for the UO22+TBP system and for more dilute UO22+/aqueous systems. In addition, several lines of evidence suggest that, at the loading levels used in this study, the uranyl species is interacting with two or more spectroscopically distinguishable sites on SAz-1.

To explore the effect of logfO2(g), pH, uranium concentration, phosphate concentration and NaCl concentration on the predominance diagrams of dissolved uranium species and formation of solid phases containing uranium in the U-PO43--NaCl-H2O system at 25 °CandPCO2=10-3.5MPa, the thermodynamic model of this system was constructed. Based on the results of calculation, the logfO2(g)-pH diagrams were drawn. It can be found that: 1) the formation of uraninite needed enough reductive condition (about logfO2(g) < -50 ), while the formation of Na-Autunite needed the strict pH range (5<pH<8) in oxidative condition. 2)The addition of phosphate concentration could promote the formation of Na-Autunite, and inhibit the formation of U4O9(C). 3)The independent increasing of uranium concentration can lead to more kinds of uranium species.4) The variance of NaCl concentration had little impact on the formation of solid phases containing uranium.

ABSTRACTWe report on the spectroscopic analysis of several samples relevant to the processes governing the behavior of oxidized uranium species in groundwater solutions under anoxic conditions. Both Fe samples with different times of exposure to the U(IV) solution and Fe metal-solution inetrfaces in the liquid cell ex-situ and in-situ, respectively. Resonant inelastic soft x-ray scattering is shown to be sensitive to the chemical state of uranium. The measurements were performed at a number of energies of the primary photon beam across the U 5d absorption edge. The results unambiguously indicate the reduction of U(VI) to U(IV) on the Fe surface.

A uranium(iv) complex supported by an unusual diphosphazide ligand was prepared. Controlled, consecutive N2 loss was observed, affording well-defined uranium species that were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography.
