Due to its radiotoxicity, long half-life, and potentially high environmental mobility, neptunium transport is of paramount importance for risk assessment and safety. Environmental transport of neptunium through field lysimeters at the Savannah River Site was observed from both oxidized (Np(V)) and reduced (Np(IV)) source materials. While transport from oxidized neptunium sources was expected, the unexpected transport from reduced neptunium sources spurred further investigation into transport mechanisms. Partial oxidation of the reduced neptunium source resulted in significant release and transport into the mobile aqueous phase, though a reduced colloidal neptunium species appears to have also been present, enhancing neptunium mobility over shorter distances. These field and laboratory experiments demonstrate the multiple controls on neptunium vadose zone transport and chemical behavior, as well as the need for thorough understanding of radionuclide source terms for long-term risk prediction.
