Study of some properties of bituminous compound for storage condition determination

Description

Resistance of bitumens to biodegradation, fire hazards and chemical explosion is examined for radioactive waste storage by encapsulation. Degradation by microorganisms of the soil and moisture, explosive properties of mixtures of bitumens and sodium nitrate, fire resistance and fire extinguishment are studied

Abstract (French)

On examine la resistance des bitumes a la degradation biologique, a l'incendie et a l'explosion pour le stockage des dechets radioactifs par enrobage. On etudie la degradation par les microorganismes du sol et l'humidite, les proprietes explosives du melange avec le nitrate de sodium, la resistance au feu et l'extinction des feux
