To date, the increasing production of radioactive waste due to the extensive use of nuclear
power is becoming a global environmental concern for society. For this reason, many …

This research is aimed at evaluating strategies for the adsorption and recovery of
anthocyanins present in purple cabbage using natural and modified clays as adsorbent. In …

Abstract Deep Geological Repository (DGR) is the preferred option for the final disposal of
high-level radioactive waste. Microorganisms could affect the safety of the DGR by altering …

Nuclear waste containing radionuclides including selenium isotopes, Se79, will be disposed
of in future deep geological repositories. Due to the long lifetime of these radioisotopes …

Gaomiaozi (GMZ) bentonite is a promising buffer material for Chinese high-level radioactive
waste (HLW) disposal, and will be either compacted in situ or used as dense prefabricated …

The deep geological repository (DGR) system is widely accepted as the solution for the
disposal of radioactive wastes in the future. This concept is based on several natural and …

Research on eco-friendly bioremediation strategies for mitigating the environmental impact
of toxic metals has gained attention in the last years. Among all promising solutions …

Concrete and bentonite are being considered as engineered barriers for the deep
geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste in argillaceous rocks. Three …

Uranium (U) is the most hazardous radionuclide in nuclear waste and its harmful effects
depend on its mobility and bioavailability. Microorganisms can affect the speciation of …

The deep geological repository (DGR) concept consists of storing radioactive waste in metal
canisters, surrounded by compacted bentonite, and placed deeply into a geological …
