Grimsel Training Centre: Bentonites in radioactive waste disposal

Participants will get an introduction to engineered barrier / bentonite requirements, properties and applications in radioactive waste topics, THM and THMC behaviour and performance in large scale in-situ experiments. International and national experts will give keynote speeches and share their experiences, and discussion forums will facilitate the exchange of knowledge and current research issues. GTS lab visits will provide first-hand insights into ongoing experiments and support the discussion of related topics in the course.
