    About this ebook

    Emerging Natural and Tailored Nanomaterials for Radioactive Waste Treatment and Environmental Remediation: Principles and Methodologies, Volume 29 provides an overview of the most important radionuclide sources in the environment, their interaction with environmental media, and appropriate remediation techniques. The book focuses on the assessment of radionuclide sorption behavior in contaminated sites and the synthesis of new materials for radionuclides remediation through sorption concepts. Chapters investigate the main interaction mechanisms between toxic/radioactive metal ions with natural and manmade materials, natural clay minerals and oxides, and novel nanomaterials, such as ordered mesoporous silicas, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and metal-organic framework-based materials.

    Techniques and models discussed include kinetics analysis, thermodynamic analysis, surface complexation models, spectroscopic techniques, and theoretical calculations.

    • Provides a systemic discussion on the interactions between toxic and radioactive metal ions and natural and manmade materials
    • Helps to select the best approach to remove toxic/radioactive metal ions from a surface
    • Edited by a scientific authority in toxic/radioactive metal ion interactions

      Best Ways to Get a Date

      Sep 4, 2018

      Most geochronological dating is radioisotopic dating, so called because some elements include unstable radioactive isotopes that decay over time into “daughter” isotopes at known and constant rates. “If you know the decay rate,” Paul Renne says, “the
