Various minerals with weathered surfaces displayed …

TECHNICAL 93-29 REPORT

cement paste of sulfate resistant cement, blast furnace slag cement, fly ash cement, aluminate cement, and silica cement have been used. Also three different samples of very old (ca 70 years) Portland concrete taken from hydropower dams have been included. Also the effect of organic additives to the concrete was studied for the actinides. The

A Review on Radiation Damage in Concrete for Nuclear

Concrete is a relatively cheap material and easy to be cast into variously shaped structures. Its good shielding properties against neutrons and gamma-rays, due to its intrinsic water content and relatively high-density, respectively, make it the most widely used material for radiation shielding also. Concrete is so chosen as biological barrier in …

Editors' Choice—Review—Electro-Kinetic Decontamination

In respect of cesium in concrete, Nikolayev et al. suggested that clayey minerals and cement binder is the main source of cesium in concrete. 64 In addition, they suggested that 30–50% of the 137 Cs in concrete is in a fixed form, and only 5% of the total amount of 137 Cs is highly fixed in concrete. Cesium is one of the elements that ...

Cesium binds strongly to soil and concrete, but does not travel very far below the surface. Plants and vegetation growing in or nearby contaminated soil may take up small amounts of Cs-137 from the soil. Small quantities of Cs-137 can be found in the environment from nuclear weapons and from nuclear reactor accidents. Cesium Sources
