Enhancement of sorption capacity to Sr and Cs of a cement composite by addition of brick powder
Original language description
Concrete is a suitable material for secondary casings in multi-barrier systems used in radioactive waste repositories, because it is durable and radiation- and thermal resistant and it has good mechanical properties. The casings should also limit possible leaching of radionuclides in case of failure of inner barriers. An efficient way to tackle this problem is the addition of a sorption material in the concrete mixture. Here mechanical and thermal properties of concrete containing different amounts of brick powder are studied in relation to the concrete mixture porosity. It is found out that, as expected, the bulk density and compressive and bending strengths decreased with an increasing amount of the brick powder. In addition, the sorption of cesium and strontium chlorides into the mixtures was analyzed under laboratory conditions, and their sorption isotherms and distribution coefficients were calculated. The results indicate that brick has higher sorption capacity for Sr than for Cs. Relatively low distribution coefficients indicate, however, that the studied brick is not a very suitable additive material for sorption of Sr and Cs elements.
