Challenges in Corrosion Protection Using Vegetable Extracts as Inhibitors - Electrochemical Studies by Lidia BENEA, Eliza Mardare DĂNĂILĂ, Iulian BOUNEGRU

“…Unexpected failures of equipment and devices because of weakening of structures induced by corrosion may reduce the safety criterion, which in the design of equipment for nuclear power plants and for disposal of nuclear wastes is critical. The effects of corrosion on the safe, reliable and efficient operation of equipment or structures are often more serious than the simple loss of a mass of metal. …”

An experimental methodology to assess the impact of desaturation on gas diffusion in clay based materials by Gowrishankar Aadithya, Jacops Elke, Maes Norbert, Verboven Pieter, Janssen Hans

“…SCK CEN has studied and recorded an extensive data set of diffusion coefficients of gases in various saturated clays (Boom Clay, Opalinus Clay, Callovo-Oxfordian claystone and bentonites) used in Europe as host formations or in engineered barrier systems in the context of deep geological disposal of high and intermediate level nuclear wastes. However, partially saturated conditions may exist during the life cycle of a radioactive waste repository. …”

A Review of World Availability of Coal and the Factors Controlling the Sequence of Exploration and Exploitation Une revue des disponibilités mondiales de charbon et des facteurs do... by Clarke A. M.

“…It is argued that, owing to uncertainties in the mining technology of curation of high level nuclear wastes, and the irrestible attractivess of the world's remaininq oilfields, the above coalmining geological aspects of coal are likely to have a greather influence on national capital investment in coal and its product (money) than vice versa. …”
