OSTI ID:146154
This article discusses both the positive aspects of the use of natural cements to sorb and immobalize radionuclides in radioactive waste and the questions which must be addressed in considering this option for radioactive waste disposal. Areas of interest/concern include high pH plume, microbiology, corrosion, colloids, {sup 14}C retardation, and radionuclide speciation. Specific examples of site investigations are presented, and the implications for respository safety are discussed. 9 figs., 3 tabs.
