Abstract

China has decided to deposit high level radioactive waste (HLW) that will be produced by quickly developing nuclear power industry. In order to assess the repository safety and predict the migration behavior of radionuclides that could be released when HLW canisters would be damaged. In addition to experimental investigations modeling has also to be used for these purposes. In this paper models involved in deep geological deposit of HLW, relevant software, and necessitated databases are reviewed with emphasis on geochemical models for chemical speciation. Multi-field coupling models are also described briefly. Finally, methods and programs for treatment of migration experimental data used in our laboratory are schematically reported.

Key words

high-level radioactive waste / repository / model / speciation / transport
