Influence of Micro Environments and Microorganisms on the Transport Properties of Redox-Sensitive Elements (E.G. Technetium)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 28 February 2011
Abstract
In laboratory experiments immobilisation of Tc under oxic conditions was observed. The transport behaviour of redox-sensitive elements is not only controlled by the geochemical “frame conditions” which can be measured within the macro environment. Immobilisation behaviour of Tc strongly depends on micro environments and on microbial metabolism. Micro environments which may develope on the mineral surfaces can detoriate the mobility of Tc, furthermore the fixation of Tc is influenced by microbial activities.
