Abstract:
      Oscillation leaching method was applied to conduct decontamination experiment for three kinds of particle size (+2 mm, -2 mm+0.15 mm, -0.15 mm) of contaminated soils surrounding uranium tailings. The optimum leaching conditions were obtained by single factor test through selection of hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, citric acid, and oxalic acid as eluting agent, and by controlling elution concentration, L/S, time, temperature, and mixture elution. The results show that removal effect of leaching agent on uranium contaminated soil is oxalic acid > hydrochloric acid > nitric acid > citric acid. When leaching concentration is 0.5 mol/L above and leaching time is 8 h above or L/S>10/1, elution effect gradually tends to be stable. Elution effect can be significantly improved by increasing leaching temperature. When two groups of oxalic acid + hydrochloric acid and oxalic acid + nitric acid are selected for elution agent, uranium removal rate in soil with full grain size is 50% above, and total uranium content drop to 27.15 and 24.32 mg/kg respectively, all of which reaches the soil remediation target (40 mg/kg).
