Modelling of hydrogen production from pore water radiolysis in cemented intermediate level waste
In France, some of the intermediate and low level wastes are embedded in hydraulic binder and put into concrete canisters. They contain β and γ emitters which cause an irradiation of water present in the pores of the hydraulic binder. This is responsible for a dihydrogen (H2) production due to radio...
