Description/Abstract:
TWELVE DETERGENTS WERE TESTED TO DETERMINE THEIR EFFECT UPON THE ABSORPTION OF SR-90, CS-137 AND PU-239 BY SOILS. EACH DETERGENT WAS TESTED AT FOUR DIFFERENT VALUES OF PH. RESULTS ARE GIVEN WHICH COMPARE THE DISTRIBUTION COEFFICIENTS OF THESE ISOTOPES BETWEEN THE DETERGENT SOLUTION AND THE SOIL AND BETWEEN WATER AND SOIL. NO GENERALIZED STATEMENT CAN BE MADE ABOUT THE EFFECT OF THE DETERGENTS. EACH DETERGENT AT ANY HYDROGEN ION CONCENTRATION MUST BE CONSIDERED INDIVIDUALLY.
