Nuclear Chemistry

Biography

Albina Orlova, professor, doctor science, works in the field of new inorganic materials for applications in nuclear chemistry for radwaste immobilisation of dangerous isotopes, for actinide transmutation, also for construction materials for various technology )optic, medicine). She uses the structure properties and physico- chemical principles for elaboration of new ceramics with many various mineral-like crystal forms. She is a member of the editorial board of the journal Radiochemistry, member of Interdepartmental Council on Radiochemistry under the Presidium of the RAS and State Corporation ROSATOM, member of the IAEA group of consultants on elaboration of IAEA Handbook "Processing of High Level Waste and Spent Nuclear Fuel Declared as Waste". She have more than 300 publications: papers, presentations at conferences, patents.

Research Interest

Professor Dr. Albina ORLOVA heads a research group in the field of crystal matrix for radwaste immobilisation. These materials allow to isolate dangerous isotopes from biosphere and recently find new applications in optic and medicine.
