Description

The leaching rate of 137Cs from bituminized products was studied by leach tests conducted for two years. For safety considerations of radioactive waste products in the final disposal, it is necessary to investigate the leaching rates of 137Cs from bituminized products. These investigations are aimed at establishing mathematical expressions which describe the time dependent release of radionuclide from waste products by determining the leaching mechanism. These expressions will allow extrapolation of real waste product behaviour for extended periods of time. (author) 2 refs.; 4 figs
