Part I: Predicting performance of Purolite A532E resins for remediation of comingled contaminants in groundwater

Ion exchange (IX) resins are used in pump-and-treat (P&T) facilities to remove soluble groundwater contaminants. However, natural anions present at concentrations orders of magnitude higher than contaminants can compete for IX sites and impact resin lifecycles. Here, the Hanford Site’s 200 West Area P&T facility (Washington State, USA) was selected as a case study because it currently uses two IX resins: Purolite® A532E (A532E) to remove pertechnetate (TcO 4 - ) and DOWEX 21K (DOWEX) to remove uranium from groundwater. Nitrate (NO 3 - ), sulfate (SO 4 2- ), chloride (Cl - ), and carbonate (CO 3 2- ) anions have been identified to potentially compete for A532E and DOWEX IX sites. Hanford-relevant anion groundwater concentrations were used to design a series of laboratory-scale batch experiments to evaluate the impact of competing anions on resin performance and potential kinetic effects. These data are then modeled to obtain Cl--normalized equilibrium exchange coefficients (K) needed to predict IX resin performance. The work is presented in two parts, with IX performance evaluated for A532E in Part I and DOWEX in Part II. Part I results demonstrate that TcO 4 - uptake is not impacted by NO 3 - , SO 4 2- , Cl - , CO 3 2- (as HCO 3 - ) and U(VI) carbonate anions, with K TcO4-/Cl- > 4,000, likely due to the high selectivity of A532E trihexylammonium sites for the large, weakly hydrated TcO 4 - anion. Other anion K values were K NO3-/Cl- = 20, K SO4--/Cl- = 0.2, K HCO3-/Cl- = 0.09, K U/Cl- = 370–1000. These K values provide conservative parameters for predicting A532E performance, and demonstrate that, under these test conditions, A532E will remove TcO 4 - from current and future influent streams to meet groundwater treatment objectives.

Evaluation of Gaseous Substrates for Microbial Immobilization of Contaminant Mixtures in Unsaturated Subsurface Sediments

Extensive vadose zone metals and organic contamination remains at many former industrial and defense manufacturing sites, and effective remedial solutions are needed to slow or prevent its migration to groundwater. In this study, the application of gaseous substrates to stimulate microbial respiratory reduction of comingled radioisotopes and nitrate under unsaturated conditions was examined for possible application at the Hanford Site, a former nuclear production facility in southeastern WA, USA. First, screening studies were performed to qualitatively measure the sediment respiratory response to 14 gaseous or volatile organic substrates at two moisture contents, 4% and 8%. Volatile substrates produced the strongest respiratory response, among them were butyrate, pentane, butyl acetate. Ethane and butane were the most effective gaseous substrates but only at 8% water content. Hanford sediment from two waste sites with distinctive chemistries were wetted to 7% moisture content, packed into columns, and treated with ethane or butane. After 4 weeks, columns were then leached to quantify retardation in the mobility of aqueous contaminant concentrations compared to no gas control columns. Treatment with both gases resulted in >80% removal of Cr from the aqueous phase. However, NO3 concentration and a waste sites exposure history to NO3 had a major effect on U and Tc reduction. Incomplete nitrate reduction outcompeted U and Tc in waste site sediments having limited prior exposure to NO3. Conversely, waste site sediments co-contaminated with NO3 were able to achieve highly reduced conditions resulting in complete denitrification of NO3, and delayed leaching of U and Tc. This implied effective reduction of both contaminants to less mobile species. This study demonstrates that unsaturated vadose sediments at Hanford waste sites have the capacity for a sustained respiratory response to gaseous substrate injection, which could potentially be deployed as part of an overall strategy to reduce the flux of long-lived radionuclides to groundwater at Hanford and other legacy waste sites.
