Studies on Modified Clay Additives to Impart Iodide Sorption Capacity to Bentonite in the Context of Safe Disposal of High Level Nuclear Waste

Sivachidambaram, S January 2012 (has links) (PDF)
It is a generally agreed internationally that high level nuclear wastes containing long-lived radioactive wastes should be disposed in deep and stable geological formations that are 500-1000 m below ground level. Deep geological disposal is based on the concept of multiple barriers to prevent deep ground-waters, present in almost all rock formations, from rapidly leaching the wastes and transporting radioactivity away from the repository. The multiple barrier system comprises of ‘engineered barriers’ that are constructed in the repository and ‘natural barriers’ in the surrounding geological environment. The engineered barrier components comprise of the vitrified solid waste, canister (to contain the vitrified waste), and a buffer or backfill material (clay or cement) that fills the annular space between the canister and the walls of the hole drilled in the floor of host-rock. The natural barrier is provided by the rocks and soils between the repository and earth’s surface. The canisters containing the hig level waste (HLW) upon placement in DGR need protection against tectonic activities and chemical attack by dissolved elements and from microbes. Densely compacted bentonite is identified suitable for this purpose owing to its large swell potential, low permeability, sufficient bearing capacity and high cation adsorption capacity. In the deep geological repository (DGR) for disposal of high level nuclear wastes, iodine-129 is one of the significant nuclides, owing to its long half-life (half life = 16 million years) and tendency to easily migrate out of the geological repository into the biosphere caused by its high solubility and poor sorption onto most geologic media. Bentonite buffer by virtue of negatively charged basal surface has negligible affinity for retention of iodide anions. Attempts have been made to improve the iodide retention capacity of bentonite by treating the clay with cationic polymers, this however occurs at the cost of reduced swelling ability of bentonite clay. The compacted bentonite employed in deep geological repositories must possess large swell potential to enable it to close fissures and cracks that form on drying of the expansive clay by the heat arising from the high level nuclear waste and thereby close pathways for migration of radionuclides (from breached canister) to the geo-environment. Therefore, it becomes important to identify an additive that enhances the iodide retention ability of the mix without significantly impairing its swelling ability. Based on the strong affinity of silver for iodide ions, the feasibility of mixing silver-kaolinite (termed AgK) clay with bentonite to improve the latter’s iodide sorption capacity and the impact of mixing AgK clay with bentonite on swelling ability of the mix forms one of the the focus of this thesis. Silver-kaolinite clay was prepared by heating 80% kaolinite + 20% silver nitrate mix at 400°C for 30 min, followed by washing (to remove unreacted silver nitrate) and oven-drying the resultant AgK clay. Physical mixing of AgK and bentonite was considered a viable proposition as small additions (10% to 20% on dry mass basis) besides imparting iodide sorption ability was expected to have minor influence on the swelling ability of the mix. As organo-bentonites are known to retain iodide ions, it was considered relevant to compare the iodide removal behaviour of AgK and organo¬bentonite clay. Hexadecylpyridinium-bentonite (termed as HDPy+B) is the organo¬bentonite examined in this thesis and is prepared by treating bentonite with hexadecylpyridinium chloride mono hydrate salt (C21H38ClN.H2O; molecular weight = 358.01). The hexadecylpyridinium chloride mono hydrate salt is a cationic quaternary ammonium compound and has been used by earlier researchers to prepare organo-bentonite for removal of iodide ions from aqueous solutions. The impact of mixing AgK and HDPy+B clays on the iodide retention and swelling behaviour of bentonite is also considered in the thesis. The mass-balance calculations, XRD analysis, X-ray photon emission survey spectrum and EPMA tests performed on kaolinite-silver nitrate mix/AgK/kaolinite specimen indicated that silver occurs as uniform coatings of AgO/Ag2O on kaolinite surface of the AgK specimen. The AgK clay has strong affinity for iodide ions reflected by the large distribution coefficients (Kd) values of 1367 and 293 mL/g at initial iodide concentrations of 750 mg/L and 1000 mg/L. Further, the sorption process was rapid, unaffected by the presence of co-ions, elevated temperature of sorption and was practically irreversible at range of pH conditions. The iodide retention by AgK is attributed to occurrence of hydrolysis and exchange reactions. On contacting the AgK with water, the AgO species hydrolyze to form AgOH; iodide ions are retained by replacing the hydroxyl group of AgOH leading to formation of AgI phase. The adsorption of HDPy+Cl- ions by bentonite occurs by replacement of the native exchangeable cations by HDPy+ ions and adsorption by van der Waals interactions between the organic cations and the clay surface. The adsorbed cationic polymer neutralize the negative charge of the clay surface. Zeta potential measurements of HDPy+B specimen indicated that adsorption of cationic polymer transforms the negatively charged clay particles into positively charged particles that favour anion adsorption. Sorption of iodide ions by HDPy+B specimen exhibits two distinct segments: 1) the iodide sorption increased rapidly at lower iodide concentration (91 mg/L to 475 mg/L) and are retained by Coulombic adsorption to the cationic groups contained in the loops and tails of the adsorbed polymer (primary adsorption sites) and 2) the relatively slower adsorption at higher iodide concentrations (larger than 475 mg/L) is attributed to exchange with chloride ions attached to HDPy+Cl-ion pair (secondary adsorption sites). The Kd values for iodide adsorption vary from 15 mL/g to 184 mL/g at initial iodide concentrations of 91 mg/L to 996 mg/L respectively. Comparing the iodide removal efficiencies of AgK and HDPy+B specimens revealed that the AgK clay exhibited larger iodide removal; further while the iodide removal by AgK specimen was almost instantaneous (complete in < 5 min), iodide removal by HDPy+B specimen was a slow process (18-24 h is needed to attain equilibrium). Likewise, the iodide retention capacity of the 50%B-50%HDPy+B mix (B = bentonite) is substantially smaller than of the 90%B-10%AgK and 80%B¬20%AgK mixes. Cation exchange capacity (CEC) measurements brought out that mixing AgK with bentonite besides imparting an iodide retention capacity essentially retains the large cation exchange capacity of the expansive clay. On the other hand mixing HDPy+B with bentonite imparts a smaller iodide retention capacity to the mix and leads to a notable reduction in the CEC of the expansive clay. Results of oedometer swell tests brought out that dilution of bentonite with 10% and 20% AgK specimen does not impact its swell potential and leads to some (10%) reduction in swell pressure, while dilution with 50% HDPy+B clay leads to notable (58%) reduction in swell potential and swell pressure (21%) underlining the superiority of AgK specimen as additive to bentonite in deep geological repositories. The swell pressure of the compacted 50%B-50%HDPy+B mix is 21% lower than that of the compacted bentonite specimen. Comparatively, dilution of bentonite with 10% and 20% AgK specimen induces 8-10% lower swell pressure in comparison to the undiluted counterpart. Swell pressure results of compacted 80%B-20%HDPy+B mix is not considered as this mix was unable to retain iodide ions. Superposing the field 129I concentration levels on I removal efficiency indicate that use of 90%B-10%AgK mix would suffice to provide 100% iodide removal efficiency and ensure that the swelling characteristics of bentonite is least affected by dilution.

Strategy and methodology for enterprise data warehouse development : integrating data mining and social networking techniques for identifying different communities within the data warehouse

Rifaie, Mohammad January 2010 (has links)
Data warehouse technology has been successfully integrated into the information infrastructure of major organizations as potential solution for eliminating redundancy and providing for comprehensive data integration. Realizing the importance of a data warehouse as the main data repository within an organization, this dissertation addresses different aspects related to the data warehouse architecture and performance issues. Many data warehouse architectures have been presented by industry analysts and research organizations. These architectures vary from the independent and physical business unit centric data marts to the centralised two-tier hub-and-spoke data warehouse. The operational data store is a third tier which was offered later to address the business requirements for inter-day data loading. While the industry-available architectures are all valid, I found them to be suboptimal in efficiency (cost) and effectiveness (productivity). In this dissertation, I am advocating a new architecture (The Hybrid Architecture) which encompasses the industry advocated architecture. The hybrid architecture demands the acquisition, loading and consolidation of enterprise atomic and detailed data into a single integrated enterprise data store (The Enterprise Data Warehouse) where businessunit centric Data Marts and Operational Data Stores (ODS) are built in the same instance of the Enterprise Data Warehouse. For the purpose of highlighting the role of data warehouses for different applications, we describe an effort to develop a data warehouse for a geographical information system (GIS). We further study the importance of data practices, quality and governance for financial institutions by commenting on the RBC Financial Group case. v The development and deployment of the Enterprise Data Warehouse based on the Hybrid Architecture spawned its own issues and challenges. Organic data growth and business requirements to load additional new data significantly will increase the amount of stored data. Consequently, the number of users will increase significantly. Enterprise data warehouse obesity, performance degradation and navigation difficulties are chief amongst the issues and challenges. Association rules mining and social networks have been adopted in this thesis to address the above mentioned issues and challenges. We describe an approach that uses frequent pattern mining and social network techniques to discover different communities within the data warehouse. These communities include sets of tables frequently accessed together, sets of tables retrieved together most of the time and sets of attributes that mostly appear together in the queries. We concentrate on tables in the discussion; however, the model is general enough to discover other communities. We first build a frequent pattern mining model by considering each query as a transaction and the tables as items. Then, we mine closed frequent itemsets of tables; these itemsets include tables that are mostly accessed together and hence should be treated as one unit in storage and retrieval for better overall performance. We utilize social network construction and analysis to find maximum-sized sets of related tables; this is a more robust approach as opposed to a union of overlapping itemsets. We derive the Jaccard distance between the closed itemsets and construct the social network of tables by adding links that represent distance above a given threshold. The constructed network is analyzed to discover communities of tables that are mostly accessed together. The reported test results are promising and demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of the developed approach.

For knowledge-based economy, archive is an important resource. Therefore, preservation and usability of archives are essential issues for archivists. In an uncertain era, the concept of crisis management is a very considerable subject. Nowadays, it is an important and essential issue for the modern organizational management. Archivists care about how to reduce damage, handle the aftermath of the incident, recover and reconstruct in crisis work, and set up the preventive measures such as prevention, detection and exercise.   The thesis is to investigate the general situation on crisis management of archival repositories in Taiwan, and combine the theory and practical needs. I apply literature analysis in crisis management of archival repositories, case study in two archival crises which occurred in Taiwan, and interview six archival repositories. Finally, the thesis provides a reference model of crisis management for the archival repositories in Taiwan.   The findings of the thesis are as follows: (a) Main archival repositories have paid attention to crisis management, (b) There are several rules of crisis management, but the integrated plans are rare, (c) The information security is sufficient in government departments, (d) The managements are frustrated about the limitation of support and the uneven professional level of primary staffs.   The following are my suggestions. First, Government departments should attach importance to crisis management of archival repositories and provide support. Second, archival repositories should establish the exchange of crisis management experience and cooperative mechanism. Third, archival repositories should develop the crisis management plans as soon as possible. Besides, I recommend three methods on the management plans which are as following: (a) Crisis detection and prevention. (b) Regular education, training and exercise. (c) Standard operating procedures on crisis dispose, (d) Inform the crisis instantly and exactly.

Experimental studies of radiation-induced dissolution of UO2 : The effect of intrinsic solid phase properties and external factors

Barreiro Fidalgo, Alexandre January 2017 (has links)
Dissolution of the UO2 matrix is one of the potential routes for radionuclide release in a future deep geological repository for spent nuclear fuel. This doctoral thesis focuses on interfacial reactions of relevance in radiation-induced dissolution of UO2 and is divided in two parts: In the first part, we sought to explore the effects of solid phase composition: The impact of surface stoichiometry on the reactivity of UO2 towards aqueous radiolytic oxidants was studied. H2O2 reacts substantially faster with stoichiometric UO2 than with hyperstoichiometric UO2. In addition, the release of uranium from stoichiometric UO2 is lower than from hyperstoichiometric UO2. The behavior of stoichiometric powder changes with exposure to H2O2, approaching the behavior of hyperstoichiometric UO2 with the number of consecutive H2O2 additions. The impact of Gd-doping on the oxidative dissolution of UO2 in an aqueous system was investigated. A significant decrease in uranium dissolution and higher stability towards H2O2 for (U,Gd)O2 pellets compared to standard UO2 was found. In the second part, we sought to look at the effect of external factors: The surface reactivity of H2 and O2 was studied to understand the overall oxide surface reactivity of aqueous molecular radiolysis products. The results showed that hydrogen-abstracting radicals and H2O2 are formed in these systems. Identical experiments performed in aqueous systems containing UO2 powder showed that the simultaneous presence of H2 and O2 enhances the oxidative dissolution of UO2 compared to a system not containing H2. The effect of groundwater components such as bentonite and sulfide on the oxidative dissolution of UO2 was also explored. The presence of bentonite and sulfide in water could either delay or prevent in part the release of uranium to the environment. The Pd catalyzed H2 effect is more powerful than the sulfide effect. The poisoning of Pd catalyst is not observed under the conditions studied. / <p>QC 20170421</p>

Gestão da informação e do conhecimento e repositórios digitais: construindo um contexto para o surgimento das competências organizacionais / -

Pires, Daniele Cristina Gonçalves Brene 30 September 2015 (has links)
A gestão da informação e do conhecimento (GIC) emerge em um contexto socioeconômico no qual a informação e o conhecimento são reconhecidos como um recurso. Um bem imaterial, inesgotável e com alto potencial para geração da sustentabilidade organizacional. Assim, vislumbra-se que este modelo gerencial atende as demandas de um novo comportamento organizacional, que busca compreender os impactos da criação e do uso da informação sobre a vantagem competitiva. Nessa linha, e tendo como objeto de estudo a relação entre a GIC e as competências organizacionais, buscou-se verificar o impacto da GIC sobre o surgimento de competências organizacionais, especialmente considerando a utilização do Dspace, um repositório digital. Por meio da aplicação da metodologia exploratória-descritiva, elaborou-se um estudo sobre a experiência do uso da plataforma Dspace em um Tribunal da Justiça Trabalhista. A análise da literatura e do relato de experiência permitiu identificar que as técnicas de GIC colaboram para o estabelecimento das competências organizacionais, especialmente quando estas são consideradas a partir de uma visão holística que integra a necessidade informacional, os fluxos informacionais, a cultura informacional, o comportamento informacional e o uso da informação. Também identificou-se que os repositórios digitais podem ser um fator de influência para o desenvolvimento das competências organizacionais, uma vez que sua principal função é estruturar os ciclos informacionais para a geração de novos conhecimentos e, finalmente, constatou-se que o Dspace é uma ferramenta que apoia o desenvolvimento das competências organizacionais, pois permite criar um estoque de informações e/ou conhecimentos produzidos ou adquiridos pelas organizações, favorecendo o estabelecimento de um contexto capacitante ideal para aquisições de novas capacidades de agir. / The information and knowledge management emerges in a socioeconomic context in which information and knowledge are recognized as a resource. An immaterial and inexhaustible asset that has a high potential for generating organizational sustainability. Probably, this management tool meets the demands of a new organizational behavior, which seeks to understand the impact of the information creation and use on competitive advantage. Thus, and having as object of study the relationship between the information and knowledge and core competence, we sought to verify its impact on the emergence of core competence, especially considering the use of DSpace, a digital repository. Through the application of exploratory-descriptive methodology, a study about the experience of using the DSpace platform in a court of Labor Justice was done. The analysis of literature and experience report identifies that the techniques of information and knowledge management collaborates to establish the core competence, especially considering an integration between the informational needs, the information flows, the informational culture, information behavior and the use of information. In addition, it was found that digital repositories can be a factor of influence for the development of core competence, especially because its main function is structuring the informational cycle for generating new knowledge and, finally, it was found that the DSpace is an important tool, which supports the development of core competence. It allows creating a stock of information and/or knowledge produced or acquired by organizations, better supporting the establishment of an optimal enabling environment for acquisition of new capabilities to act.

Ostanel, Carlos Eduardo 01 March 2011 (has links)
A presente dissertação tem como objetivo principal desenvolver um modelo de orientação, que norteie os tilapicultores a respeito das boas práticas de produção em tanques-rede indicadas pela FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) e pela literatura acadêmica, a fim de eliminar a ausência do conhecimento, fator considerado limitador para o desenvolvimento da aquicultura. Para tanto, foi aplicado um estudo qualitativo segregado em duas fases. Na primeira, o tipo de estudo adotado foi exploratório. Essa fase foi composta por três etapas: revisão da literatura e FAO, elaboração do modelo de orientação, de acordo com o método EKD (Enterprise Knowledge Development), e elaboração do questionário. Já na segunda fase foi combinada a pesquisa de observação com o estudo descritivo. Foram realizadas duas etapas: visitas de observação, com a aplicação do questionário, e validação do modelo de orientação. Encerrada a segunda fase, a modelagem foi concluída. O modelo de orientação possibilitou a análise da tilapicultura de modo sistêmico, gerando um repositório de conhecimento, o qual permite que a cultura seja compreendida, debatida e melhorada, tornando-se um guia aos tilapicultores que desejam adequar-se ao objetivo sustentável. Dessa maneira, as tilapiculturas poderão reduzir a lacuna existente entre a teoria e a prática e eliminar a ausência do conhecimento. / This article aims at the development of an orientation model to guide tilapia breeders towards good practices of breeding in cage ponds recommended by FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) and academic literature in order to eliminate the lack of knowledge, which is considered a limiting factor in the development of aquaculture. A qualitative study divided into two phases was conducted. In the first phase the study was exploratory and comprised three stages: review of the literature and FAO, elaboration of an orientation model and FAO, elaboration of an orientation model according to EKD (Enterprise Knowledge Development) method, and elaboration of a questionnaire. The second phase comprehended the observation research and descriptive study, both developed in two stages: observation visits, with the application of the questionnaire, and validation of the orientation model. The modeling was finished after concluding the second phase. The orientation model enabled a systemic analyses of the tilapia breeding, generating a knowledge repository that allowed the culture to be understood, debated and improved. Such a model can seen as a guide to tilapia breeders that intend to fit the sustainable goal. Therefore tilapia cultures can reduce the existing gap between theory and practice as well as eliminate the lack of knowledge.

Protótipo de um repositório de dados de Benchmarking / Prototype of a Benchmarking data repository

Lima Junior, Jair Ferreira 20 December 2005 (has links)
Muitas organizações utilizam o processo de aprendizado e de melhoria baseado na comparação e na observação, denominado de benchmarking, mas poucas sabem de fato como fazê-lo corretamente. A referida técnica fornece um estímulo externo que encoraja um ambiente de aprendizado contínuo, tornando as empresas adaptáveis a novos conhecimentos. O benchmarking tornou-se um enfoque interessante quando se percebe que a melhoria dos processos de uma organização é fundamental para que ela alcance vantagem competitiva, e também quando se torna claro que essa melhoria pode vir da troca de aprendizado com outras corporações. Este trabalho apresenta um protótipo de um repositório de informações de benchmarking com acesso via internet, que fornece uma base de dados às organizações participantes, e tem como intuito facilitar a troca de experiências entre as mesmas. Para a efetivação do presente trabalho foram realizados estudos da literatura sobre benchmarking, levantamentos das bases de dados de benchmarking existentes no Brasil e no exterior, que servissem de guia para o desenvolvimento do modelo conceitual do repositório, além da construção de uma base de dados composta por indicadores de desempenho e melhores práticas sobre benchmarking. Ao longo desse trabalho, procurou-se estudar os modelos de negócios eletrônicos, a importância e as formas de estruturação de um banco de dados e as questões relativas à segurança em sistemas de informação. Finalizando, demonstrou-se em detalhes como foi construída a base de dados de benchmarking e o website do projeto, denominado de RVB - Rede Virtual de Benchmarking, com o objetivo de enriquecer o modelo do repositório e o trabalho teórico/conceitual. / Many organizations use a learning and improvement process based in the comparation and observation, named benchmarking, but few organizations really know how to make it correctly. The technical provides an external stimulus which encourages a continuum learning environment, making the companies adaptable to the new knowledge. Benchmarking became an interesting focus when we notice that the improvement of the processes of an organization is fundamental for it to reach a competitive advantage, and also when it\'s clear that this improvement can come from the exchange of learning with other corporations. This study presents a prototype of a repository of benchmarking information with access through internet, which provides a data base to the participant organizations, and with the aim to make easy the exchange of experiences among the organizations. To the effectiveness of this work, literature study about benchmarking were carried out, as well as data bases benchmarking existing in Brazil and abroad, which could serve as a guide to the development of a conceptual model of repository, besides the construction of a data base composed of indicators of performance and better practices about benchmarking. Along this study it was studied the models of electronic businesses, their importance and the forms to structure a data bank and the questions related to the security in systems of information. To finalize it was demonstrated in details how was the benchmarkingdata base constructed and the website of the project, named RVB - Benchmarking Virtual Net with the objective of enrich the repository model and the conceptual/theoretical work.

Descoberta de relacionamentos entre padrÃes de sofware utilizando semÃntica latente / Discovery of relationships between software patterns using latent semantics

Rute Nogueira Silveira de Castro 11 September 2006 (has links)
O reuso de padrÃes de software vem se tornando cada vez mais comum no desenvolvimento de sistemas, pois se trata de uma boa prÃtica de engenharia de software que visa promover a reutilizaÃÃo de soluÃÃes comprovadas para problemas recorrentes. No entanto, existe uma carÃncia de mecanismos que promovam a busca de padrÃes adequados a cada situaÃÃo. TambÃm hà uma dificuldade na detecÃÃo de relacionamentos existentes entre os padrÃes de software disponÃveis na literatura. Este trabalho apresenta o uso de tÃcnicas de mineraÃÃo de texto em um conjunto de padrÃes de software com o objetivo de identificar como esses padrÃes se relacionam. A tÃcnica de mineraÃÃo de textos busca extrair conceitos inteligentes a partir de grandes volumes de informaÃÃo textual. O padrÃo de software deve ser tratado dentro de mineraÃÃo de texto como um grande volume de texto com uma estrutura definida por seu template. Os graus de relacionamentos entre os padrÃes sÃo determinados nos possÃveis tipos de relacionamentos entre eles, bem como atravÃs de regras fundamentadas no conceito de PadrÃes de Software. Essas regras, aliadas à tÃcnica de mineraÃÃo de texto, geram as informaÃÃes de relacionamento desejadas. / The reuse of software patterns is becoming increasingly common in developing systems, because it is a good practice of engineering software that aims to promote the reuse of solutions to recurring problems. However, there is a lack of mechanisms that promote the search for patterns appropriate to each situation. There is also a difficulty in detecting relationships among the software patterns available in the literature.This work presents the use of techniques for text mining into a set of software patterns in order to identify how these patterns are related. The technique of mining, intelligent text search extract concepts from textual information.The software pattern should be treated within the mining of text as a volume of text with a defined structure for its template. The degrees of relationships among the patterns are possible in certain types of relationships among them, and through rules based on the concept of software pattern. These rules, coupled with the technique of text mining, generate information of relationship you want.
