Although minor in abundance in Earth's crust (U, 2–4 ppm; Th, 10–15 ppm) and in seawater
(U, 0.003 ppm; Th, 0.0007 ppm), light actinides (Th, Pa, U, Np, Pu, Am, and Cm) are …

Reactions of the light actinide ions (Th to Cm) at the mineral− aqueous solution interface
have attracted much attention during recent years. Initially research was mainly driven by the …

Moreover, the spectra shown by Figure 8F are highly similar to the spectra from Figure 7D of
the article that the first author, the last author et al have previously published in Dalton …

We provide new insights into the geochemistry of serpentinites from mid-ocean ridges (Mid-
Atlantic Ridge and Hess Deep), passive margins (Iberia Abyssal Plain and Newfoundland) …

Uranium mill tailings (UMTs) are one critical source of environmental U pollution. Leaching
test has been extensively used to reveal U release capacity and mechanism from UMTs …

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have exhibited high sorption capacity for
radionuclides due to the unique hollow structure and large surface area. In this study …

Limited resource availability and population growth have motivated interest in harvesting
valuable metals from unconventional reserves, but developing selective adsorbents for this …

With the increasing global need for groundwater resources to fulfill domestic, agricultural,
and industrial demands, we face the threat of increasing concentrations of naturally …

The renaissance of nuclear energy promotes increasing basic research on the separation
and enrichment of nuclear fuel associated radionuclides. Herein, we report the first study for …

Due to the rapid development of the nuclear power industry, and consequently, the nuclear
accident in Fukushima, much attention has been paid to novel materials for the efficient and …
