✦ Synopsis

This book covers the siting of nuclear waste, waste generation, treatment schemes, immobilization technologies, disposal, and long-term behavior. Aspects include regulations as well as new technologies and methods. A focus is the analysis of matrices for transport, i.e. cement, bitumen, and particularly glass. Assessments of matrix performance are given, and the development of ceramics and glass composites and in situ metal matrix immobilization are described.
