| Opis: | Uranium (U) mobility in the environment strongly depends on its oxidation state and the presence of complexing
agents such as inorganic carbon, phosphates, and dissolved organic matter (DOM). Despite the importance of
DOM in U mobility, the exact mechanism is still poorly understood. Therefore, the aim of our investigation was
to characterise sediment porewater DOM in two lakes in Ontario, Canada (Bow and Bentley Lakes) that were
historically contaminated with U and propose possible composition of UO2-bearing DOM. Depth profiles of U
concentrations in porewaters and total sediment digests reveal U levels of up to 1.3 mg L−1 in porewater and up
to 0.8 mg−1 g in sediment. Depth profiles of U did not correlate with Fe, Mn, SO4
2−, or Eh profiles. Therefore,
porewater DOM was analysed and taken into consideration as the primary source of U mobility. Porewater DOM
in each sediment section (1 cm sections, 20 cm core length) was analysed by high-resolution electrospray ionisation
mass spectrometry. PCA analyses of porewater DOM mass spectra showed grouping and clear separation
of DOM in sediment sections with elevated U concentrations in comparison to sections with background U
concentrations. Several criteria were set to characterise UO2-bearing DOM and more than 70 different molecules
were found. The vast majority of these UO2-DOM compounds fell in the category of carboxyl-containing aliphatic
molecules (H/C between 0.85 and 1.2 and O/C≤0.4) and had a mean value of m/z about 720. |
