ABSTRACTThe Finnish spent nuclear fuel disposal is based on the Swedish KBS-3 concept in crystalline bedrock. The concept aims at long-term isolation and containment of spent fuel in copper canisters surrounded by bentonite buffer which mostly consists of montmorillonite. For the long-term modelling of the chemical processes in the buffer, the cation-exchange selectivity coefficients have to be known at different temperatures. In this work, the cation-exchange selectivity coefficients and cation-exchange isotherms were determined in batch experiments for montmorillonite at three different temperatures (25 °C, 50 °C and 75 °C). Five different ratios of NaClO4/Ca(ClO4)2 were used in the experimental solutions. After equilibration the solution and montmorillonite were separated and the solution analysed to get the desired exchange parameters. The experiments were modelled with a computational model capable of taking into account the physicochemical processes that take place in the experiment.

AbstractThe exchange of Ca2+ and Na+ by tanthanide ions (Ln3+ = Pr3+, Gd3+, Er3+) in montmorillonite was investigated at two different ionic strengths (0·01 and 0·1 mol/kg). Preferential sorption of Ln3+ was observed and variable selectivity coefficients were found depending upon the lanthanide concentration in the solid, and ionic strength. The highest exchange extent of Ln3+ always occurred for the system Na+/Ln3+, but the exchange selectivities of Ln3+ were generally higher in the exchange system Ca2+/Ln3+. Although the relative affinity of montmorillonite for the three lanthanide ions was similar, distinctive behaviour between Pr3+ and the heavier lanthanides, Gd3+ and Er3+, was noted. The study of Ln3+ adsorption in trace amounts showed specific adsorption of lanthanides at high concentrations of Na+ in the external solution and that the exchange stoichiometries in the interlayer regions were 3 : 1 at equilibrium pH = 4.
