[1C16] Consideration on modeling of Nb sorption onto clay minerals in the presence of Ca
Keywords:Nb, Ca, illite, sorption modeling, solubility
We developed a sorption model taking into account the surface species of Ca-Nb-OH, and reanalyzed the data of Ervanne et al. (2014) for illite. As a result, we were able to reproduce the high sorption distribution coefficient of Nb to illite in the presence of Ca.
