Abstract

Amorphous zirconium phosphates (ZrP) loaded with 137Cs and 90Sr/90Y isotopes are contained in cements and theirleaching behaviour with simulated pond, ground, sea and deionized waters, evaluated. Acceptable compositions of the waste mixes in terms of the proportions of various components and their solid to liquid ratios, are also described. The first paper in this series sought to establish a current commercially available amorphous zirconiuin phosphate (ZrP) as a medium for aqueous nuclear waste treatment. 1 This paper extends this to encapsulation studies.
