TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the presence of bentonite colloids on the migration of highly sorbing elements, such as Eu and Pu, in a granite environment were investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the behavior of the conservative anionic species 36Cl− with HTO (neutral and conservative tracer, tritiated water) in a wide range of clay dry densities.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the numerical interpretation of diffusion and permeation experiments by solving the inverse transport problem which is formulated as the minimization of a weighted least squares criterion measuring the differences between computed and measured concentration values.

TL;DR: Experiments were carried out using compacted FEBEX bentonite, which is the reference material for the Spanish concept of radioactive waste disposal, and were interpreted by means of available analytical solutions that allow the estimation of diffusion coefficients and, in some cases, distribution coefficients.

TL;DR: The DI-B experiment is a long-term, natural-scale, in situ diffusion experiment, which is being performed in the Opalinus Clay formation at the Mont Terri Underground Rock Laboratory (URL), in Switzerland, employing nonradioactive tracers as mentioned in this paper.
