An introduction to nuclear waste immobilisation
Michael I. Ojovan,William E. Lee +1 more
TL;DR: An Introduction to Nuclear Waste Immobilization, Second Edition examines the gamut of nuclear waste issues from the natural level of radionuclides in the environment to geological disposal of waste-forms and their long-term behavior as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immobilisation of radioactive waste in glasses, glass composite materials and ceramics
TL;DR: In this article, the basic principles of incorporating high level radioactive waste into glasses, ceramics and glass composites, including glass-ceramics, are described, and the importance of processing property-structure relations in such systems over size scales from the atomic to the geological and on timescales to hundreds of thousands of years is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glassy Wasteforms for Nuclear Waste Immobilization
Michael I. Ojovan,William E. Lee +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis of the role of ion exchange and hydrolysis, and performance of irradiated glasses is analyzed with a detailed analytical model of glassy materials, along with a brief description of waste vitrification technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Viscosity and Glass Transition in Amorphous Oxides
TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of amorphous oxide materials viscosity and glass-liquid transition phenomena is given, including the configuron model of glass transition which shows a reduction of Hausdorff dimension of bonds at glass liquid transition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ceramic Mineral Waste-Forms for Nuclear Waste Immobilization
Albina Orlova,Michael I. Ojovan +1 more
TL;DR: The SPS method is now considered as one of most promising in applications with actual radioactive substances, enabling a densification of up to 98–99.9% to be achieved in a few minutes.
