Microfissures sealing optimization for underground waste disposal in igneous rocks
Abstract
The concept of disposal of high toxicity wastes, particularly those arising from nuclear sources, inside rocks vaults, demands the use of extremely effective, and at the same time, permanent techniques for sealing fissures, which are invariably present in the earth’s crust: the primary consideration should be the utilization and selection of proper materials for sealing these wastes.
