Immobilization of actinides in simulated high level liquid radioactive waste on high silica glass ceramic host

  • 1. China Academy of Engineering Physics, Mianyang (China)

Description

High silica glass ceramic solidification was synthesized by sintering the vitreous silica at 1200 ℃ in order to improve the performance of the glass immobilization. The testing results show that the properties of high silica glass ceramic solidification, for example, density, encapsulated capacity, the leaching rate and so on, are superior to the borosilicate glass immobilization.
