Abstract

The study of distribution coefficient of strontium on bentonite and kaolinite samples, collected from Citumbuk, Bogor and Sukaramai, Padang, has been investigated under batch experiments. The sorption ratio was determined as a function of time, ionic strength and Sr concentration in the solution. The strontium wasextensively absorbed in the samples, with Kd values of 13,700 and 1,600 mL/g for bentonite and kaolinite samples respectively. The other results showed that ionic strength of the solution and initial concentration of Sr have given an effect to 90Sr sorption onto samples.

Abstract

The Batubesi area in Belitung Timur is located in the eastern part of the Southeast Asian granites tin belt zone, so that it expected as a potential area for the occurence of ore deposit such as iron and cassiterite associate with monazite and other accessories minerals. The study aimed to understand the geological setting and to determine the occurrence of primary ore deposit and its radioactive accessories minerals. The methodologies in this research are geological mapping, uranium and thorium grade measurement, petrography, mineragraphy and grain counting analysis. The area composed by granite and metasandstone units. Types of granites are biotite and hornblende granites. The geological structures founded in this area are SW-NE sinistral and NW-SE dextral faults. Ore deposit in the area is primary iron ore deposits of skarn iron tin polymetallic type where magnetite is the main mineral while monazite and zircon are radioactive accessories minerals. The other accessories minerals are hematite, ilmenite, cassiterite, and rutile.

Abstract

The extraction of Nd(OH)3 (neodymium hydroxide) concentrate containing Y (yttrium), Sm (samarium) and Pr (praseodymium) as product of monazite processed has been done. The purpose of this study is to determine the separation of Nd from Y, Pr and Nd Sm in Nd concentrate. The aqueous phase was concentrated Nd (OH)3 in HNO3 and extractant while organic phase was Tri Butyl Phosphate (TBP) in kerosene. Parameters studied were pH and concentration feed, concentration of TBP in kerosene, extraction time and stirring speed. The result showed that the optimization of separation extraction neodymium from samarium, yttrium and praseodymium in Nd(OH)3 concentrated with TBP, obtained the optimum condition of pH = 0.2, concentration of feed 100 g /L, concentration of TBP in kerosene 5%, extraction time 15 minutes and stirring speed 150 rpm. With the conditions, Separation Factor (SF) obtained for Nd-Y, Nd-Pr, Nd-Sm are 2.242, 4.811, 4.002 respectively, while D and extraction efficiency of Nd are 0.236 and 19.07%.

Abstract

The activity of subsurface material composing site foundation characterization is part of nuclear installation siting study. Characterization conducted by several methods, such as understanding the depositional environment of rock formations. As a segment of depositional environment interpretation method, facies model analysis based on electrofacies provides quicker information on depositional system of rock formation. Methodology applied is gamma ray log (log GR) interpretation using relative correlation between log shape variation and sedimentation facies. Based on the analysis, Bojongmanik Formation was deposited on marine-lagoonal environment with very low wave influence. Log GR that shows shape of funnel, serrated, and symmetry, indicate shoreface, lagoon, and tidal point bar facies. The direction of sedimentation, basin, and supply of Bojongmanik Formation interpreted relatively to the north. Serpong Formation deposited on meandering river system, and composed of point bar deposit, crevasse splay, and floodplain deposit. The result of analysis is expected to be guidance in further analysis related to the characterization of foundation materials.

Abstract

A study related to shallow groundwater interaction with Kali Garang River water in Semarang, Central Java using stable isotopes of 18O and 2H has been conducted. As much as 16 groundwater and 3 river water samples were taken for stable isotopes d18O and d2H analysis using Liquid water isotope analyzer LGR DLT-100. The results of analysis shows that there are two area of water recharge origin: the first area contains d18O isotope ranging between -9.41 ‰ to -8.5 ‰ and d2H between -58.2 ‰ to -51.6 ‰; the second area contains isotopes of d18O and d2H -7.15 and -41.55 ‰, respectively. Thus, these results indicate that the first water samples originate from a higher elevation than the origin of the second water sample, but both of them have no interrelation with river water. Whereas, other groundwater samples show that the sample (R4) has interrelation (i.e. mixing) with the river water and two other samples (L1 and R1) have interrelation with salty water or seawater.

Abstract

The general investigation activities of radioactive minerals in Mamuju Area, West Sulawesi is a respon of the environmental radioactivity measurement result, which shows the existence of high radioactivity value. High radioactive mineral content found in Botteng and Takandeang Villages. From the outcrops, they composed of leucite-basalt rocks; meanwhile the subsurface characteristics of this area are unknown. To characterize the subsurface geology, related to uranium and thorium mineralization in Botteng and Takandeang area, geophysical measurement conducted using resistivity and Induced Polarization (IP) methods. The measurements carried out using Wenner and dipole-dipole configurations. The measurements started with the creation of six measurement paths where three lines: GF/BTGY-01, GF/BTGK-02, and GF/BTGK-04 are in Botteng and three other lines: GF/TKDK-01, GF/TKDK-07 and, GF/TKDY-06 are in Takandeang. Measurements conducted by crossing the surface radiometric anomaly distribution. The result showed anomaly occurences on autobreccia distribution in GF/TKDY-6, GF/TKDK-07, and GF/BTGK-04 locations. Several mineralization indication on surface identified in GF/BTGK-0, and GF/TKDK-01 sections, charaterized by chargeability anomalies more than 25.14 ms and 81.4 ms respectively. All significant anomalies are recomended as drilling location.

Abstract

Research on temperature, time and additives effects on milling process in micronized-zircon production has been conducted. The production of zircon micronized started from sorting process on mining products then followed by beneficiation, roasting, leaching, dryng and milling processes. The results showed that the optimum conditions of the roasting process was at the temperature of 425 °C, in 25 minutes and using 4% additives. In these conditions, micronized zircon (2 µm) obtained as much as 92.10% in10 minutes milling time.
