Recycling of Radionuclides from Nuclear Waste

Nuclear waste reprocessing operations produce both high level and medium level activity liquid wastes (HLW/MLW). The major nuclides in these radioactive wastes are those with long half-lives, mainly beta/gamma emitters or alpha emitters such as transuranium elements.

Ion Recognition

4

Ion recognition, thus chemical sensors based on Ion Selective Electrodes, or ISFET’s, Ion Selective Field Effect Transistors; transport membranes based on Supported Liquid Membranes (SLM’s) and Fixed Site Complexing Membranes (FSCM’s). Ion Selective Electrodes: We have developed a new material … Continue reading

Dicarba-Closo-Dodecarborane-Derivative

9

The Teixidor’s research group is interested in working with dicarba-closo-dodecaborane C2B10H10. One of the capital features of these carboranes is the capability of the 2 carbon atoms and 10 boron atoms to adopt the icosahedral geometry in which the carbon … Continue reading
