Abstract

A high level radioactive waste disposal facility may be built on a coastal area. Therefore, it is important to investigate the influence of seawater on bentonite buffer material. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of seawater on the swelling pressure and swelling deformation characteristics of five typical kinds of bentonites. This experimental work clarified the relations between the influence grade of seawater and compaction density, type of exchangeable-cation, montmorillonite content of the bentonite, and vertical pressure condition. Based on experimental results, a specification for the buffer material which can overcome the influence of seawater was defined.
