Description

In near-surface repositories for radioactive waste, significant quantities of gases may be generated as a result of microbial degradation and corrosion. The potential impact of gas generation, accumulation and migration on the long-term safety of a repository, should therefore be assessed properly. We present here safety assessment results of gas producing radioactive waste disposal as well as gas generation calculation (authors)
