High level waste immobilization forms [PDF]
Various solid HLW forms compared for leach resistance, irradiation stability, processing, and physical properties yield alkali borosilicate glass and titanate based ceramics as leading waste forms. Titanates offer the possibility of higher waste loading. Glass waste forms offer the advantage of simpler and demonstrated full-scale and radioactive remote

Stability of High-Level Waste Forms [PDF]
The objective of the proposed effort is to use a new approach to develop solution models of complex waste glass systems and spent fuel that are predictive with regard to composition, phase separation, and volatility. The effort will also yield thermodynamic values for waste components that are fundamentally required for corrosion models used to predict

Extraction of 137Cs From High Level Liquid Waste
The treatment and disposal of high level liquid waste(HLLW) is an important factor affecting the sustainable development of nuclear energy. The extraction separation of high-heat-release nuclide 137Cs from HLLW is not only beneficial to the safe disposal

Modelling the thermo-mechanical volume change behaviour of compacted expansive clays [PDF]
Compacted expansive clays are often considered as a possible buffer material in high-level deep radioactive waste disposals. After the installation of waste canisters, the engineered clay barriers are subjected to thermo-hydro-mechanical actions in the ...

Long-term creep of Beishan granite under uniaxial compression
Investigations into the long-term creep behavior of Beishan granite in uniaxial compression were conducted. Four levels of axial stress (60, 70, 87, and 95 MPa) were applied to rock specimens.
