Description

Vitrification is an attractive approach for treatment of the radioactive waste from nuclear power plants. The borosilicate glass has received major consideration as the primary waste form for the disposal of the radioactive waste. In this study, we examined Na2O-Al2O3-B2O3-SiO2 system glass as radioactive waste glass. The quantitative analysis by ICP for leached solution has shown that the more SiO2 in glass decrease the leaching rate from the glass. It was found that higher BO4 tetrahedra structure leads to increase the chemical durability
