Published in 2017 at "Applied Clay Science"

DOI: 10.1016/j.clay.2017.07.003

Abstract: Abstract Bentonite clays will be used as barriers in geological repositories for radioactive wastes. Anoxic conditions will prevail in such repositories, and the presence of sulphide-producing bacteria in commercial bentonites and deep groundwater environments is… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Radiocarbon"

DOI: 10.1017/rdc.2018.138

Abstract: ABSTRACT Carbon-14 (radiocarbon, 14C) is an important radionuclide in the inventory of radioactive waste in many disposal programs due to its significant dose contributions in safety assessments for geological repositories. Activated steels from nuclear reactors… read more here.
