  • Γ Spectroscopy System for Teaching and Research
    γ Spectroscopy System for Teaching and Research PI: Nathalie Wall- Washington State Collaborators: NA University Program: General Scientific Infrastructure ABSTRACT: The project objective is to improve the technical capability of the Washington State University (WSU) Department of Chemistry in the field of radiochemistry, allowing for enhancement of WSU’s capacity to attract and teach high quality students interested in nuclear energy-related studies. The specific aim of this project is to purchase and setup the equipment pieces necessary for a new up-to-date γ spectroscopy system. One of the flagship academic programs at WSU is radiochemistry, administratively located in the Chemistry Department. Six (6) faculty members of the Department of Chemistry are involved in different aspects of nuclear sciences, including environmental radiochemistry, separation, nuclear forensics, radiopharmacology, and computational chemistry. In addition to academic radiochemistry program, WSU is home to the Nuclear Radiation Center (WSU-NRC), which includes a 1 MW TRIGA-fueled research reactor and associated radiochemistry laboratory space. WSU nuclear science program at the Department of Chemistry has shown a considerable growth in the last decade. Out of the 48 students currently integrated in the program (only 5 graduate students were enrolled in this program in 2000), 36 are currently conducting experimental work requiring radioanalytical equipment. Although the program currently features adequate counting systems and α spectroscopy, there is a lack of an up-to- date γ spectroscopy system that is readily available for both R&D work and laboratory instruction. The only γ spectroscopy system owned by the radiochemistry faculty in the chemistry department is a 17 years-old HPGe detector currently used for low-level and long term (months) measurements, rendering its application to other projects nearly impossible.

  • Fundamental Research on Radiochemistry of Geological Nuclear Waste Disposal

Marques Fernandes Fundamental Research on Radiochemistry of Geological Nuclear Waste Disposal Sergey V. Churakovab*, Wolfgang Hummela, and Maria Marques Fernandesa Abstract: Currently, 5⋅1019 Bq of radioactive waste originating from the use of nuclear power for energy produc- tion, and medicine, industry and research, is maintained in Switzerland at intermediate storage facilities.[1] Deep geological disposal of nuclear waste is considered as the most reliable and sustainable long-term solution world- wide. Alike the other European countries, the Swiss waste disposal concept embarks on the combination of en- gineered and geological barriers. The disposal cell is a complex geochemical system. The radionuclide mobility and consequently radiological impact depend not only on their chemical speciation but also on the background concentration of other stable nuclides and their behaviour in the natural environment. The safety assessment of the repository is thus a complex multidisciplinary problem requiring knowledge in chemical thermodynamics, structural chemistry, fluid dynamics, geo- and radiochemistry. Broad aspects of radionuclide thermodynamics and geochemistry are investigated in state-of-the-art radiochemical laboratories at the Paul Scherrer Institute. The research conducted over the last 30 years has resulted in a fundamental understanding of the radionuclides release, retention and transport mechanism in the repository system. Keywords: Nuclear waste disposal · Radionuclide geochemistry · Radionuclide retention and transport Sergey V. Churakov is Head of Laboratory Maria Marques Fernandes is head of the of Waste Management in the Department Clay Sorption group in the Laboratory for of Nuclear Energy and Safety at the Paul Waste Management in the Department Scherrer Institute (PSI) and Full Professor of Nuclear Energy and Safety at the in the Institute of Geological Sciences at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI).

    Session 2377 Development of a PhD Radiochemistry Program at the University of Texas at Austin S. Landsberger, D. J. O’Kelly Nuclear Engineering Teaching Lab Department of Mechanical Engineering University of Texas at Austin and L. Katz Environmental Engineering Program Department of Civil Engineering College of Engineering University of Texas at Austin Introduction The latter half of the 20th century witnessed an unprecedented amount of research and development in the use of radiochemistry in the United States spearheaded by cold war defense needs, the emergence of the new areas of nuclear medicine and its requirements for novel radioactive isotopes, and the 1954 Atoms for Peace initiated by former President Dwight Eisenhower. Equally important was the establishment of the International Atomic Energy Agency in 1956, which promoted worldwide usage of nuclear applications including various aspects of radiochemistry. In the US, radiochemistry programs traditionally resided in chemistry departments, although many geochemists judiciously employed these techniques in their research areas. In the 1960’s and 70’s, the Department of Energy actively supported many university programs involving radiochemistry research and the Atomic Energy Commission gave out many fellowships in the nuclear chemistry. Training of radiochemists at the graduate level was easily achievable through the existence of funded research programs at various US universities. However, by the mid 1970’s with fewer opportunities for funded research and the appearance non-destructive techniques that did not require sophisticated radiochemistry techniques, many chemistry departments began to down-size or eliminate graduate research in radiochemistry. At first, the reduction in trained radiochemists to meet DOE and general nuclear medicine needs did not appear alarming.
