Abstract

The evaluation of experimental results by methods of mathematical statistics enabled us to derive a number of conclusions on the leachability of vitrified radioactive wastes. Practical application of this procedure requires that the ratio of Na and K concentrations in the solution should be independent of the leaching time. The actual value of this ratio is influenced, above all, by the properties of the glass matrix. These results confirm the assumption that the Na/K correlation found could be extended for the determination of the Na/137 Cs concentration ratio. This finding was used for the application of a In-In correlation, while evaluating the quality of vitrified radioactive wastes products.
