Analysis of functional criteria for buffer material in a high-level waste repository

Creators

Description

This study is intended to analyze the requirements of buffer material that is one of the major components of the engineered barriers in a high-level waste repository. Based on the results, it is intended to suggest the quantitative functional criteria that is necessary to establish the preliminary concept for the domestic geological repository. The criteria are composed of seven major items, such as hydraulic conductivity, retardation capacity, swelling potential and swelling pressure, thermal conductivity, longevity, organic carbon content, and mechanical properties. (author). 87 refs., 12 tabs., 3 figs
