Uranium Mining and Hydrogeology IV

The conference is for scientists and engineers working on the topic of uranium in soil and water, the mining business, environmental protection and ecotoxicity, and risk assessment.

The conference focuses on uranium mining and milling sites, mining sites with considerable amount of uranium and radionuclides as by-products e.g. phosphate production, abandoned mines, clean up measures, natural attenuation, monitoring measures, modeling techniques, and risk assessment studies. Sensors for in-situ monitoring of uranium and related elements, as well as active and passive water treatment and soil treatment techniques will be discussed. The subjects of active and abandoned Uranium mines, elevated uranium in groundwater without uranium mining impact, and mining activities with uranium as a side product and problem will be approached through case studies.Conference topics:
- Sensors for in-situ monitoring of uranium and related elements
- Analytical speciation techniques for uranium and related elements
- Chemical toxicity of uranium
- Microbiology of uranium
- Thermodynamic and kinitical modeling
- Active and passive water treatment techniques
- Active and passive soil treatment techniques
- Phytoremediation
- In-situ leaching of uranium ores
- Risk assessment studies (e.g. long term aspects of waste rock piles and tailings)
- Case studies: active and abandoned Uranium mines
- Case studies: elevated uranium in groundwater without uranium mining impact
- Case studies: mining activities with uranium as side product / problem

Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
