Description: Microbial Degradation Processes in Radioactive Waste Repository and in Nuclear Fuel Storage Areas, Hardcover by Wolfram, J. H. (EDT); Rogers, R. D. (EDT); Gazso, L. G. (EDT); NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Microbial Degradation Processes in Radioactive Waste Repository and in Nuclear Fuel Storage Areas (1996 : Budapest, Hungary) (COR), ISBN 079234488X, ISBN-13 9780792344889, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US As an aid to the several countries beginning the long-term storage of high-level nuclear wastes, reports on problems with microbes that have been encountered in the storage of low and medium level wastes and spent fuel, often long beyond their intended time. Examines and discusses what deleterious effects have been observed in actual waste conditions or in simulated trial tests for predicting material performance under various storage conditions. Two areas of concern are microbial-influenced corrosion of containers that initiates or accelerates other corrosion, and biofilms breaking down the structure of the waste material itself thus jeopardizing its integrity.
