“…These empirical models mitigate the Kd hypothesis by assuming that sorption occurs on 2-3 different types of solid sites, governed by equilibrium and/or kinetic rates. In the laboratory, the EK approaches better describe non-equilibrium 137Cs sorption observed in batch sorption experiments (Lee et al, 2013;Valcke and Cremers, 1994), stirred flow-through reactors, and soil columns (Ardois and Szenknect, 2005;Szenknect et al, 2003). However, in field conditions, evidences that equilibrium-kinetic sorption explain observed 137Cs migration are still limited.…”
