SURRI :Sustainable Remediation of Radionuclide Impacts on Land and Critical Materials Recovery

“放射性核素对土地和关键材料恢复影响的可持续补救”项目旨在建立一个多国共同研究议程和项目流水线，以应对放射性核素对土地修复和材料恢复构成的挑战，特别注重稀土元素和其他关键元素，以促进水、土壤和材料资源的更有效循环和管理。这一专题与促进土地、水和几种关键材料的循环利用高度相关。对于土地和废物管理研究来说，调查放射性核素问题的缓解一直是一个“灰姑娘”主题，其重点一直是有机和无机化学污染。然而，放射性核素给整个社会带来了广泛而困难的问题，特别是实现“绿色协议”。这一研究概念的基础是电化学和微生物干预措施的综合，可在现场或非现场应用，以提供新的工具来解决受放射性核素影响的场所的补救问题，并促进从受放射性核素影响的废物中回收物质资源，从而减少对原始(和非欧盟)来源的依赖。该项目由TECHNICKA UNIVERZITA V LIBERCI(TUL，CZ)协调，格拉纳达大学(ES)、罗马·萨皮恩扎大学(IT)和南安普顿大学(英国，联系伙伴)参与其中。该领域的三个国际领先合作伙伴将帮助TUL实现五个具体目标--提高其在减缓放射性核素影响方面的研究水平，为虚拟R&I中心制定共同的研究愿景和支持研究议程，提高TUL工作人员的研究水平，并在拟建的虚拟中心发展一个支持者、贡献者和参与者的国际网络。

The project “Sustainable Remediation of Radionuclide Impacts on Land and Critical Materials Recovery (SURRI)” aims to establish a multinational shared research agenda and project pipeline for addressing the challenges radionuclides pose to land remediation and materials recovery, with a particular focus on rare earth elements (REE) and other critical elements, in order to facilitate more efficient cycling and management of water, soil and material resources. The topic is highly relevant to facilitating the circular use of land, water and several key materials. Investigating the mitigation of radionuclide problems has been rather a “Cinderella” subject for land and waste management research, where the focus has been on organic and inorganic chemical contamination. However, radionuclides present widespread and difficult problems for Society at large and achieving the “Green Deal” in particular. The research concept is based on the integration of electrochemical and microbiological interventions, which can be applied, in-situ or ex-situ, to provide new tools to unlock the remediation of radionuclide affected sites, and facilitate the recovery of material resources from radionuclide-impacted wastes, and so reduce reliance on virgin (and non-EU) sources. The project is coordinated by the TECHNICKA UNIVERZITA V LIBERCI (TUL, CZ) with the participation of the UNIVERSIDAD DE GRANADA (ES), UNIVERSITA DEGLI STUDI DI ROMA LA SAPIENZA (IT) and the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON (UK, Associated Partner). The three internationally leading partners in the field will help TUL to reach five specific objectives – to advance its research excellence in radionuclide impact mitigation, to develop a shared research vision and supporting research agenda for a virtual R&I centre, to raise the research profile of TUL staff, and to develop an international network of supporters, contributors and participants in the proposed virtual centre.
