“…Previous desorption studies by Kaplan et al (2008) reported K d values similar to those measured for this report where they measured a K d in an oxidizing environment of 0.93 mL/g and a reduced value of 91.3 mL/g, although there is some question to the validity of the latter value because of interference in the analytical data used to calculate the K d (Kaplan et al 2008). In a kinetic study, Kaplan et al (2011) measured steadily increasing technetium K d values from 2 to 900 mL/g as the contact time of Tc(VII) increased from 1 to 56 days. In these latter studies, a glovebox was used and atmospheric O 2 was maintained much lower <0.5 ppm, (this work 30-60 ppm), and suspension Eh was typically -250 mV.…”
