A Kinetic Monte Carlo Approach to Model Barite Dissolution: The Role of Reactive Site Geometry

Barite (Ba[SO<sub>4</sub>]) is one of the promising candidates for sequestration of radioactive waste. Barite can incorporate radium (Ra) and form ideal solid solutions, i.e., (Ba,Ra)[SO<sub>4</sub>]. Together with isostructural celestite (Sr[SO<sub>4</sub>]), ter...
