Abstract The Hanford site in Washington State houses~ 56 million gallons of radioactive
wastes stored in 177 underground tanks. The waste must be immobilized and permanently …

Résumé In this review, we provide a perspective on the science and technology of
vitrification of waste. First, we provide a background on the general classes of wastes for …

Nuclear power plays a key role in maintaining current worldwide energy growth while
minimizing the greenhouse gas emissions. A disposition path for used nuclear fuel (UNF) …

Glass is a versatile material with a remarkable history and many practical applications. It
plays a critical role in our everyday lives, the advancement of science, and the development …

In this study, multi‐phase borosilicate‐based glass‐ceramics were investigated as an
alternative waste form for immobilizing non‐fissionable products from used nuclear fuel …

A modified associate species approach is used to model the liquid phase in oxide systems.
The relatively simple technique treats oxide liquids as solutions of end‐member and …

Abstract Nepheline (Na6K2Al8Si8O32) is a rock‐forming tectosilicate mineral which is by far
the most abundant of the feldspathoids. The crystallization in nepheline‐based glass …

This paper reports the results of a study focused on the obtainment of glass-ceramic by
using rice husk ash (RHA) as silica precursor. RHA is a by-product generated in biomass …

Recent glass formulation and melter testing data have suggested that significant increases
in waste loading in HLW and LAW glasses are possible over current system planning …

We report on the influence of Fe2O3 on the crystallization kinetics of nepheline (Na2O·
Al2O3· 2SiO2)‐based sodium aluminosilicate glasses. A series of glasses with varying …
