Description

To assess the conditions for the safe disposal of radioactive wastes by encapsulation in cements, the effect of curing time on the leaching of radionuclides prior to the commencement of leaching experiments has been investigated. Leach tests were carried out on various cement matrices, using a modified IAEA method recommended by Hespe. (author). 5 refs., 4 tabs
