Abstract

An optimization of mortar (as matrix), improved with bentonite clay, used for immobilization of radionuclides60Co,137Cs,85Sr and54Mn, is presented. A relatively simple mathematical model is given, which permits minimization of leach rate and permeability and maximization of compressive strength. An optimal solution, based on experimental data, is given. These results will be used for a future Yugoslav radioactive waste storing center.
