The chemistry of technetium in cement waste forms has been studied with x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy. Using the Tc K-edge x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) as a probe of the technetium speciation, our results show that partial reduction of the pertechnetate ion, Tc04-, takes place in the presence of the cement additive, blast furnace slag (BFS). The addition of the reducing agents FeS, Na2S, and NaH2P02 produces more extensive reduction of Tc04-, while the compounds FeO, Fe304, and Mn304 are observed to be unreactive. The extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data for the BFS, Na2S, and FeS treated cements indicate the presence of Tc clusters possessing first shell S coordination. For the Na2S and FeS additives, Te-Te interactions are detected in the EXAFS demonstrating an extended structure similar to that ofTcS2. The EXAFS spectrum of the NaH2P02 treated cement reveals Te-O and Te-Te interactions that resemble those found in the structure ofTc02.
