| Popis: | Gas generation from the alpha radiolysis of organic, transuranic (TRU) wastes has been cited as a potential area of concern for their terminal isolation in a geologic repository. This paper discusses gas generation rates from the alpha radiolysis of typical organic transuranic wastes, which are affected by the organic matrix, dose rate, dose, and temperature. The matrices under test were cellulosics, plastics, and rubber materials. 23 refs. |
