What is Geological Repository Systems for Safe Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuels and Radioactive Waste (Woodhead Publishing Series in Energy) about?
Geological disposal has been internationally adopted as the most effective approach to assure the long-term, safe disposition of used nuclear fuels and radioactive waste materials produced from nuclear power generation, nuclear weapons programs, medical, treatments, and industrial applications. Geological repository systems take advantage of natural geological barriers augmented with engineered barrier systems to isolate these radioactive materials from the environment and from future populations. Geological Repository Systems for Safe Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuels and Radioactive Waste critically reviews the state-of-the-art technologies, scientific methods, regulatory developments, and social engagement approaches directly related to the implementation of geological repository systems. Part one introduces geological disposal, including multiple-barrier geological repositories, as well as reviewing the impact of nuclear fuel recycling practices and underground research laboratory activities on the development of disposal concepts. Part two reviews geological repository siting in different host rocks, including long-term stability analysis and radionuclide transport modelling. Re
