Abstract

1065 take place if the waters were contaminated with radioactive materials. In addition, the water would come in contact with clay and soil particles in the bed or bottom of the stream or lake. Treatment of the water by coagulation would remove much of the radioactivity by removing the contaminated clay particles and also by coagulation per se. The effectiveness of a coagulation process in regard to radioactivity removal could undoubtedly be increased by either a preliminary slurrying with clay or the addition of rlay directly to the water during the coagulation step along with the coagulating chemicals.The removal of radioactive materials by clay slurrying is in the preliminary stage of investigation and there is definite need for more information, in order that the technique may be exploited to its best advantage and its limitations recognized.
