摘要

We present a novel methodology for determining the transport of technetium-99m,a γ-emitting metastable isomer of ~(99)Tc,through quartz sand and porous media relevant to the disposal of nuclear waste in a geological disposal facility (GDF).Quartz sand is utilized as a model medium,and the applicability of the methodology to determine radionuclide transport in engineered backfill cement is explored using the UK GDF candidate backfill cement,Nirex Reference Vault Backfill (NRVB),in a model system.Two-dimensional distributions in ~(99m)Tc activity were collected at mUlimeter-re solution using decay-corrected gamma camera images.Pulse-inputs of ~20 MBq ~(99m)Tc were introduced into short (<10 cm) water-saturated columns at a constant flow of 0.33 mL rnin~(-1) .Changes in calibrated mass distribution of ~(99m)Tc at 30 s intervals,over a period of several hours,were quantified by spatial moments analysis.Transport parameters were fitted to the experimental data using a one-dimensional convection-dispersion equation,yielding transport properties for this radionuclide in a model GDF environment.These data demonstrate that ~(99)Tc in the pertechnetate form (Tc(Ⅶ)O_4~-) does not sorb to cement backfill during transport under model conditions,resulting in closely conservative transport behavior.This methodology represents a quantitative development of radiotracer imaging and offers the opportunity to conveniently and rapidly characterize transport of gamma-emitting isotopes in opaque media,relevant to the geological disposal of nuclear waste and potentially to a wide variety of other subsurface environments.
