Abstract:
Compacted MX80 bentonite/Callovo-Oxfordian (COx) claystone mixture has been considered as a possible sealing/backfilling material in the French deep geological radioactive waste disposal. The swelling pressure of such mixture is an important factor in the design and long-term safety assessment of deep geological repositories. In this study, constant-volume swelling pressure tests were performed on the mixtures with different claystone fractions and dry densities. The test results show that the swelling pressure of the mixtures decreased with the increasing claystone fraction and decreasing dry

In this study, the compression behaviour of unsaturated damaged COx claystone is investigated by performing high pressure oedometer tests with controlled suction. The damaged oedometer samples were prepared by shearing the claystone in triaxial conditions. Four high pressure oedometer tests were conducted using different controlled suctions. The effects of suction and damage on the swelling and compression were investigated in oedometer. Results show that the intact claystone exhibits a larger swelling strain than that of the damaged one at the same imposed suction. The damaged claystone at a

Abstract:
The sustainability of geotechnical infrastructures is closely linked with their long-time behavior. In fact, there is not a straightforward procedure to predict this behavior, and very often, the back analyses of observed data are the best tool to understand their long-time response. In-situ observations of drifts constructed in the Callovo-Oxfordian (COx) claystone, the potential host formation for geological radioactive waste disposal, in France exhibit a progressive convergence. These convergence measurements with quite significant dispersions reveal a considerable uncertainty of time-depen

Abstract:
Abstract Silicate glasses are durable materials but laboratory experiments reveal that elements that derive from their environment may induce high corrosion rates and reduce their capacity to confine high-level radioactive waste. This study investigates nuclear-glass corrosion in geological media using an in situ diffusion experiment and multi-component diffusion modelling. The model highlights that the pH imposed by the Callovo–Oxfordian (COx) claystone host rock supports secondary-phase precipitation and increases glass corrosion compared with pure water. Elements from the COx rock (mainly M

Abstract:
Two experimental mockups were operated for one year at 70°C to study the corrosion of C-steel and alteration of AVM glass surrounded by Cox claystone. Only one system included cement-bentonite grout (CBG). Nanometer-scale analyses (TEM, XANES) examined the glass/C-steel interface to assess CBG's effects. The most notable difference was the presence of a nanometric magnetite layer on the C-steel surface in the CBG system. This layer, promoted by the slightly alkaline pH (8–10) solution influenced by CBG, could act as a passivating barrier, potentially mitigating corrosion, although corrosion ra

Abstract:
There is a consensus that deep geological disposal is one of the most appropriated solution to store radioactive waste, and that argillaceous rocks have great potential as possible geological host formation. In this context, The French National Radioactive Waste Management Agency (Andra), is leading the design of a deep geological radioactive waste repository to be located in the Callovo-Oxfordian claystone (COx), at about 500 m depth (Cigéo project).
 Radioactive waste disposal aims to protect the environment over a period of several thousands of years. For this purpose, these facilities

Abstract:
Regarding high-level nuclear waste (HLW) and spent fuel (SF) disposal, underground geological disposal is likely to be the most feasible and effective solution [1]. The coupled Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical (THM) behaviour of host rocks has been widely studied by laboratory tests, in-situ experiments and numerical analyses. In field experiments performed in underground laboratories, pore pressure generation and damage evolution have been observed. In this context, coupled THM numerical analyses can be an essential tool to better understand the coupled multiphysics behaviour of host rocks, buffer mat

Abstract:
Abstract Clay-rich rocks such as marls and claystones are of great interest for many applications which include the storage of CO2 or the storage of spent nuclear fuel. These rocks are either regarded as potential host rocks or as caprocks. As both CO2 storage and a nuclear waste repository require a long-term stability of the rocks under changing stress conditions, Young’s modulus is a critical parameter as it describes the stiffness of the material. Up until now, Young’s modulus is regarded as a constant with large error bars in numerical models even though it depends on several parameters.

Abstract:
AbstractClay‐rich rocks are integral to subduction zone dynamics and of practical importance, for example, as barriers in nuclear waste and CO2 repositories. While the effects of swelling strain on the self‐sealing capabilities of these rocks are relatively well‐established, the implications of polar fluids interacting with charged clay particles on the frictional behavior, and the role of swelling stress in initiating slip in critically stressed faults, remain ambiguous. To address these uncertainties, we conducted triaxial friction experiments using saw‐cut samples, with the upper half compo
