The rapid growth in nuclear industries such as uranium ores mining, nuclear energy
generation, spent-fuel treatment and nuclear weapon manufacture has caused a legacy of …

Uranium (U) pollution is an environmental hazard caused by the development of the nuclear
industry. Microbial reduction of hexavalent uranium (U (VI)) to tetravalent uranium (U (IV)) …

Although reduction of highly mobile U (VI) to less soluble U (IV) has been long considered
an effective approach to in situ environmental remediation of uranium, candidate reducing …

In this work, Lysinibacillus sp. JLT12 was used to remove the Cr (VI)-induced passive layer
on the magnetite. Mechanism study via dynamic kinetics, X-ray diffraction, Raman …

Uranium (U) is a ubiquitous element in the Earth's crust at~ 2 ppm. In anoxic environments,
soluble hexavalent uranium (U (VI)) is reduced and immobilized. The underlying reduction …

In recent years, scientists have progressively recognized the role of electronic structures in
the characterization of chemical properties for actinide containing materials. High-energy …

The row of 15 chemical elements from Ac to Lr with atomic numbers from 89 to 103 are
known as the actinides, which are all radioactive. Among them, uranium and plutonium are …

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

Iron-based materials have been widely used for treating uranium-containing wastewater.
However, the iron-uranium solids originating by treating radioactive water through pollutant …

Compared to pyrochar (PC), little is known about the capability of torrefaction char (TC) in
water pollution control. In this study, the physicochemical properties of TC and PC, and their …
