Interaction of Cs and Sr with C–A–S–H and Carbonated C–A–S–H phases: Experimental study and thermodynamic modeling
Understanding the retention mechanisms of radioactive cesium and strontium in cementitious materials is crucial for predicting contamination spread and designing effective barriers. This study investigates the adsorption behavior of Cs and Sr on calcium aluminosilicate hydrate (C–A–S–H) and its carbonated forms, revealing distinct retention mechanisms in these phases.
We found that in C–A–S–H, Cs and Sr adsorption occurs primarily through ion exchange with interlayer cations, with adsorption capacity increasing at lower Ca/Si ratios. In contrast, carbonation transforms C–A–S–H into CaCO3 and an aluminosilicate gel with a three-dimensional network structure, significantly enhancing Cs and Sr retention through multiple mechanisms: ion exchange within the aluminosilicate framework, incorporation into the gel structure, and Sr substitution for Ca in carbonates.
Based on these findings, we developed a comprehensive thermodynamic model that successfully reproduces Cs and Sr adsorption behavior across various conditions by explicitly incorporating the aluminosilicate gel phase—a critical component overlooked in conventional models. This model provides a valuable tool for predicting radionuclide behavior in aging concrete barriers and supports the development of more effective containment strategies for radioactive waste.
