Waste Disposal in Rock (DEVELOPMENTS IN GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

An overview of the important issues involved in selecting suitable sites, design and construction methods for preparing repositories for hazardous waste in crystalline rock. Most of the examples used refer to radioactive waste. The focus is on the preparation and performance of multibarrier systems of rock, waste containers and sealing components in a long-term perspective. Examples are provided from large-scale field experiments conducted in the international Stripa Project (a project to develop and test techniques for isolating highly radioactive waste). For environmental geologists, structural geologists, and civil engineers. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
