Abstract
Great amounts of soil and waste contaminated with radioactive cesium have been generated due to the decontamination work after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident. The aim of this study is to develop a sealing geomaterial for use at the disposal facilities of the soil and waste constructed in the maritime environment. The geomaterial consists of marine clay, bentonite, and zeolite. The hydraulic conductivity and cesium-adsorption performance of the geomaterial were examined through laboratory tests with different proportions of bentonite and zeolite added to marine clay. It was concluded that the hydraulic conductivity could be reduced to the required level by increasing the amount of bentonite and that the cesium-adsorption capacity could be enhanced by increasing the amount of zeolite.
