BACKGROUND: Accidents at nuclear fuel cycle plants may lead to contamination of areas of land and water. Cheap and available sorbents including natural aluminosilicates can be used for rehabilitation and decontamination of large volumes of radioactively contaminated water, including drinking water, prevention of migration of radionuclides into ground and surface waters through the soil and returning contaminated soil to farming.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
