Certain wastes such as nuclear wastes, are so hazardous that their
disposal creates a major challenge requiring considerable technical
skill and understanding. Their effective isolation in the ground
depends on the properties of the surrounding clays. This
authoritative book explains the detailed function of clay-based
engineered barriers, gives a number of examples of the design and
construction of successful sites, and sets out conceptual and
theoretical models for the prediction of their performance. It
begins by providing a scientific grounding in the relevant aspects
of clay science and successively moves onto the practicalities,
while retaining the scientific slant. It will be useful for
students, and invaluable for research institutes, specialists in
environmental protection agencies and consultants in the field of
disposal of hazardous waste.
