Abstract

We have developed a new NMR-based procedure for studying waste/cement interactions. This is the first the of deuterium NMR spectroscopy to study waste solidification/stabilization (S/S). The main feature of deuterium NMR spectroscopy is the ability to monitor molecular reorientations over a wide range of reorientation rates. This technique allows one to determine if a particular deuterated organic waste is effectively solided/stabilized and to determine the lower limit of the bond strength between the waste and the cement matrix. Comparison of the predicted and experimental deuterium NMR spectra show that phenol is mainly dissolved in pore waters and, thus, poorly immobilized by white portland cement, at least for cure times up to 1 year
