This project investigates the reduction of uranium in contaminated sediments and aquifers, focusing on the formation of different uranium species by bacteria. By exploring the conditions that influence uranium speciation, the research aims to improve environmental remediation strategies and nuclear waste management.
The remediation of uranium-contaminated sediments and aquifers remains a major environmental challenge, yet the processes that control uranium speciation and mobility in the subsurface remain largely unknown.
In anoxic systems, two major processes may lead to uranium reduction: direct electron transfer via bacterial metabolism or indirect electron transfer from microbially- reduced metals.
Our initial experiments confirm that bacterial reduction of U(VI) may lead to the stable mineral uraninite…
