Swelling ability and behaviour of bentonite-based materials for deep repository engineered barrier systems: Influence of physical, chemical and thermal factors
Compacted bentonite–sand (B/S) mixtures have been used as a barrier material in engineered barrier systems (EBSs) of deep geological repositories (DGR) to store nuclear wastes. This study investigates the individual and combined effects of different chemical compositions of deep groundwaters (chemic...
