"This book presents a state of the art review and critical evaluation of the type and magnitude of the various sorption and incorporation processes in hydrated cement systems for twenty-five elements relevant for a broad range of radioactive ..."
"Cementitious materials are being widely used as solidification/stabilisation and barrier materials for a variety of chemical and radioactive wastes, primarily due to their favourable retention properties for metals, radionuclides and other contaminants. The retention properties result from various mineral phases in hydrated cement that possess a high density and diversity of reactive sites for the fixation of contaminants through a vari ..."
"This state ends after approximately 0.35 kg of cumulative leached water. This
amount of water correspond to approximately 5 pore volumes assuming a
porosity of 7% (or about 3 years under the assumptions specific for the Dessel
site, cf. Jacques et al. 2008). • State II: The pH is controlled mainly by the
dissolution of portlandite. The concentrations of all other elements (except Na
and K) are controlled by cement phases and remain ..."
"Why should central banks fight against inflation? To answer this question, understanding the magnitude of welfare cost of inflation is important and becomes an active research field. Economists always make some assumptions to simplify the model from reality so that the model is tractable. But at the same time, these simplifications may affect the clear view on the source of inflation cost and affect the way to measure the cost of inflat ..."
