Abstract: The possibility that large areas of the landscape could become contaminated with strontium 90 through fallout or reactor accidents has necessitated studies of means of decontaminating soils containing radio-strontium. In this work three possible methods were investigated: 1) displacement by electrolytes and leaching; 2) physical immobilization using asphalt preparations; and 3) placement at depth.
