Reactive transport modelling of iron-bentonite interface evolution

Wilson, J.*; Watson, C.*; Benbow, S.*; Savage, D.*; Sasamoto, Hiroshi   

Iron steel overpack will be surrounded by bentonite buffer as a engineering barrier system for the high-level radioactive waste disposal. It is concerned that iron-bentonite interactions result in the alteration of montmorillonite to non-swelling Fe-rich minerals. In the present study, reactive transport modeling of iron-bentonite interface evolution has been conducted to evaluate the long-term behavior of bentonite stability. A number of model cases were produced in order to assess which processes are likely to dominate at iron-bentonite interfaces.
