Technetium: new trends in investigation andapplication Konstantin German
The chalenges of Technetium Thermodynamics - NEA_TDB Review made by NEA-TDB summed up the chemical thermodynamics of Tc and its principle gaps: Rard J.A., Rand M.H., Anderegg G., Wanner H., Chemical thermodynamic of technetium. Eds. Sandino Amalia M., Osthols E. NEA (1999) Elsiever Publ. Amsterdam. - it formed the Axes for studies • Time passed being characterized with the controversy of nuclear industry present and future status, drastic for Tc-99 originating mostly as the uranium fission product. • The definite stop in nuclear development would fix Tc further accumulation but now is clearly not the case and we appreciate the authors who were continuing efforts in Tc focused sciences. Joe Rard and the delegates of IST2005
Recent steps • All the gaps should be closed - we know - so indeed one may see : among the gaps named 17 years ago – some are thoroughly studied and important answers were obtained: Tc(VII) in strong acids – closed thanks to our collaboration with F. Poineau and his colleagues from UNLV • The basis for this progress - Chemical medium for stabilisation of instable species and new Instrumental and methodology breakthroughs

Eh-pH Pourbaix diagram for Tc • The solubility of Tc(IV) remains independent of pH until around 13.5, when a small increase can be seen which continues to increase linearly with pH. • Modelling suggests that this increase occurs as the species TcO(OH)3− is formed. The formation constant was estimated with data from this study and was found to be logK2=−21.6±0.3. • Authors: Peter Warwick | S. Aldridge | Nick Evans | Sarah Vines - Rad.

Tc speciation in solutions & melts by XAFS . • TcO4- - is highly environmental migrating species • Radiolyse in presence of organic components lead to the reduction of Тс(VII) to Tc(V, IV, III) • In chloride melts Tc could be examined (German, Simonoff, Reich, 2000, Grenoble) • Acetate complexes Тс(V, IV, III) exist but the data are scattered and the structure not systematically studied in collaboration with Prof. Grigoriev. • Acetate complexes of Тс(III) could co-exist withTc(VII) • DMSO solutions could make stable Pu3+ in presence of Tc(VII) *German-Fedosseev-Grigoriev 2017 ROBL_ESRF Grenoble Kurchatov Institute (KI) MOSCOW Advanced Photon Source inst. & UNLV
Tc(VII) in strong acids The speciation of Tc(VII) in 12 M sulfuric acid was studied last year by NMR, UV-vis and XAFS spectroscopy, experimental results were supported by DFT calculation and were in agreement with the formation of TcO3OH(H2O)2. F. Poineau, Ph. Weck, K. German, A. Maruk, G. Kirakosyan, W. Lukens, D. Rego, A. Sattelberger, K. Czerwinski , Dalton Trans. 2010 The speciation of Tc(VII) in HClO4 is being reported at this Symposium and supports the TcO4- conversion to new Tc(VII) species in strong acids
