Journal ArticleDOI
The Use of Clay as an Engineered Barrier in Radioactive-Waste Management a Review
Patrik Sellin,Olivier X. Leupin +1 more
TL;DR: Bentonite and bentonite/sand mixtures are selected primarily because of their low hydraulic permeability in a saturated state, which ensures that diffusion will be the dominant transport mechanism in the barrier as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimentally determined swelling pressures and geochemical interactions of compacted Wyoming bentonite with highly alkaline solutions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors simulated possible interactions between cement and bentonite by contacting highly compacted bentonite with high molar hydroxide solutions in a series of laboratory experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interlaboratory CEC and Exchangeable Cation Study of Bentonite Buffer Materials: I. Cu(II)-triethylenetetramine Method
Reiner Dohrmann,Dieter Genske,Ola Karnland,Stephan Kaufhold,Leena Kiviranta,Siv Olsson,Michael Plötze,Torbjörn Sandén,Patrik Sellin,Daniel Svensson,Martin Valter +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the CEC of clay samples in five different laboratories using the same method and evaluated the precision of the values measured, and the precision was comparable to the iSE ring test.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gas migration experiments in bentonite: implications for numerical modelling
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate key features from gas transport experiments on precompacted Mx80 bentonite, under laboratory and field conditions, and discuss their implications in terms of a conceptual model for gas migration behaviour.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mineralogical investigations of the first package of the alternative buffer material test – I. Alteration of bentonites
TL;DR: The Alternative Buffer Material Test (ABT) as mentioned in this paper is a large scale test that considers eleven different clays which are either compacted (blocks) or put into cages to keep the material together.
