Title: Chemical thermodynamics of solid solutions of interest in radioactive waste management
Description: This volume is intended as a state-of-the-art report on the modelling of aqueous-solid solution systems by the combined use of chemical thermodynamics and experimental and computational techniques, in the context of radioactive waste management, and more specifically oriented towards underground disposal. These systems are ubiquitous in nature and therefore intrinsic to the understanding and quantification of radionuclide containment and retardation processes present in geological repositories of radioactive waste. Representative cases for study have been chosen from the radioactive waste literature to illustrate the application of the various approaches. No attempt has been made to systematically review the literature dealing with all aspects of solid solutions or to select data, although particular emphasis has been placed on the application of the thermodynamic formalism to systems encountered in radioactive waste management which can be described as solid solutions.--Publisher description.
