Post-Closure Silica Transport in the Proposed High Level Radioactive Waste Repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada
… and recondenses. This study examines how silica leaching might occur as a result of water-tuff interactions in Yucca Mountain after the emplacement of heat-producing nuclear waste canisters. A vertical thermal gradient experiment (VTGE) was designed and built in order to simulate the water …

Understanding the Impact of Nuclear Environment on the Hydrothermal Corrosion in SIC
… SiC corrosion results in the formation of silica, which can then be rapidly dissolved in the LWR environment. LWR conditions are demanding on materials because they are subjected to irradiation, high pressure, high temperature, and aqueous chemistry. Experiments were performed under …
