Factors Controlling In Situ Uranium and Technetium Bioreductionat the NABIR Field Research Center

Description: This research hypotheses is: (1) Indigenous microorganisms in the shallow aquifer at the FRC have the capability to reduce U(VI) and Tc(VII) but rates are limited by--Scarce electron donor, Low pH and potentially toxic metals, and High nitrate. (2) U(VI) and Tc(VII) reduction rates can be increased by--Successive donor additions, Raising pH to precipitate toxic metals, and Adding humics to complex toxic metals and serve as electron shuttles.

Influence of Reactive Transport on the Reduction of U(VI) in the Presence of Fe(III) and Nitrate: Implications for U(VI) Immobilization by Bioremidation/Biobarriers

Description: The purposes of this report are to: (1) to determine how flow and transport influence the distribution of U(VI) under field-relevant conditions and the transfer of reductive equivalents to the aqueous and solid phases by DMRB; and (2) to examine the solid-phase stability of bioreduced uranium phases--effects of mass transfer on reoxidation of U(IV) by O{sub 2} and other oxidants (e.g., NO{sub 3}{sup -}, denitrification products).

PNNL/Alabama/ORNL Project Activities and Results

Description: The hypothesis of this report is Mobile radionuclides in low-permeability porous matrix regions of fractured saprolite can be effectively isolated and immobilized by stimulating localized in-situ biological activity in highly-permeable fractured and microfractured zones within the saprolite.

Reaction-Based Reactive Transport Modeling of Biological Iron(III) Reduction

Description: The summary of this report is: (1) biogenic flux increases as hydrologic residence time decreases; (2) reaction-based reactive transport modeling can capture this effect; (3) solid-phase Fe(III) bioreduction can be sustained at long residence times in natural sediments; and (4) long-term coupled Fe(III)/U(VI) bioreduction can be sustained in natural sediments.

Reduction of U(VI) Complexes by Anthraquinone Disulfonate: Experiment and Molecular Modeling

Description: Past studies demonstrate that complexation will limit abiotic and biotic U(VI) reduction rates and the overall extent of reduction. However, the underlying basis for this behavior is not understood and presently unpredictable across species and ligand structure. The central tenets of these investigations are: (1) reduction of U(VI) follows the electron-transfer (ET) mechanism developed by Marcus; (2) the ET rate is the rate-limiting step in U(VI) reduction and is the step that is most affected … more

Virtual Institute of Microbial Stress and Survival: Deduction of Stress Response Pathways in Metal and Radionuclide Reducing Microorganisms

Description: The projects application goals are to: (1) To understand bacterial stress-response to the unique stressors in metal/radionuclide contamination sites; (2) To turn this understanding into a quantitative, data-driven model for exploring policies for natural and biostimulatory bioremediation; (3) To implement proposed policies in the field and compare results to model predictions; and (4) Close the experimental/computation cycle by using discrepancies between models and predictions to drive new mea… more
