Prediction of the Non-Reducing Biomineralization of Nuclide-Microbial Interactions by Machine Learning: The Case of Uranium and .

exhibits a great affinity to soluble U(VI) through non-reducing biomineralization. The pH value, temperature, initial uranium concentration, bacterial concentration, and adsorption time are recognized as the five environmental sensitive factors that can regulate the degree of non-reductive biomineralization. Most of the current studies have focused on the regulatory mechanisms of these factors on uranium non-reductive mineralization. However, there are still few reports on the importance of these factors in influencing non-reductive mineralization, as well as on how to regulate these factors to increase the efficiency of non-reductive mineralization and enhance the enrichment of on uranium. In this work, a deep learning neural network model was constructed to effectively predict the effects of changes in these five environmental sensitivity factors on the non-reducing mineralization of to uranium. Accuracy (99.6%) and R (up to 0.89) confirm a high degree of agreement between the predicted output and the observed values. Sensitivity analysis shows that in this model, pH value is the most important influencing factor. However, under different pH values, temperature, initial uranium concentration, adsorption time, and bacterial concentration have different effects. When the pH value is lower than 6, the most important factor is temperature, and once the pH value is greater than 6, the initial concentration is the most important factor. The results are expected to provide a theoretical basis for regulating the enrichment degree of U(VI) by , achieving the maximum long-term stable fixation of U(VI), and understanding the environmental chemical behavior of uranium under different conditions.
