2 Outline Context Mineralogical characterization of the black shale SEM, XRD Radiochemical analysis of the black shale Raw material Results of sequential extractions Conclusion
3 Introduction Black shales new adsorbents removal of organic substances, heavy metals and bacterium removal of radionuclides (,Th) Radioactive elements more concentrated in black shales than in other sedimentary lithologies Release of, Th into the ecosystem during thermal processing or chemical activation Purpose of the present work: To To define the modes of occurrence of and Th in the raw material. Catherine Galindo RadChem
