Abstract

Within the framework of the Belarus National Programme, IPEP is performing research on the immobilization of low level radioactive waste after decontamination and remediation of Chernobyl Zone. The goal of the R&D programme is to develop a composite matrix for embedding these wastes using special encapsulation technology and reinforced and hydro-resisting polymer-concrete layer on solidified waste blocks to minimise the amount of cement for conditioning of waste.
