Synthesis of pollucite with Cs-polluted incineration ash mixed with soil for immobilization of radioactive Cs

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2018
Abstract The Fukushima unclear leakage in Japan on March 11 t h, 2011 resulted in huge amount of Cs-polluted incineration ashes and soils produced. The conventional solidification (cement and glass solidifications etc.) methods for nuclear wastes treatment seem unsuitable because too many solidification basis materials are also required.
