Abstract In the geological disposal system of high-level radioactive and transuranic wastes, an increase in Ca concentration (arising from the alteration of cementitious materials) could affect the retention of other radionuclides due to competitive sorption. Batch sorption experiments were performed to investigate the sorption behavior of Ca and its competition with other divalent cations (Sr and Ni) on the edge sites of Kunipia F montmorillonite under alkaline conditions. Ca sorption increased with pH (when pH > 8) and it was more pronounced under high ionic strength conditions, indicating that Ca formed a surface complexation with the edge sites. The sorption behavior of Sr was similar to that of Ca. Meanwhile, the Ni sorption increased with pH, when this was >6 (for lower pH values than in the case of Ca and Sr), Ni tends to form surface complexes more readily than Ca and Sr. The results of a fitting analysis conducted based on the 2-site protolysis non-electrostatic surface complexation and cation exchange (2SPNE SC/CE) model indicate that Ca and Sr sorb onto the ≡SW2OH sites and Ni sorbs onto the ≡SSOH sites. Additionally, the sorption of the CaOH+ and SrOH+ ionic pair species by cation exchange was implied at pH ~ 12. Competitive sorption experiments were also carried out to evaluate the effect of Ca on the sorption of Sr and Ni. Sr sorption decreased with Ca concentration in the alkaline pH region, whereas Ni sorption was not affected by Ca concentration. Overall, these results indicate that Ca and Sr sorb onto the same sites, while Ca and Ni sorb onto different sites; additionally, the competitive sorption seemed to depend on chemical similarities (e.g., hydrolysis behavior). The sorption model parameters obtained from the single-element batch sorption experiments successfully reproduced the results of the competitive sorption experiments.
Highlights Ca sorption and its effects on Sr and Ni sorption on montmorillonite under alkaline conditions were investigated. Ca and Sr form surface complexation with the edge sites of montmorillonite. Ca and Sr compete with each other under alkaline conditions, whereas Ca and Ni do not. The 2SPNE SC/CE model reproduced the results of the competitive sorption experiments.
