Grimsel Test Site Newsletter 6 published

24/12/2021

The Grimsel Test Site (GTS) has published its sixth newsletter, which is available here.  This issue includes a focus on:

  • the successful completion of the installation of the HotBENT experiment – represented by a “pictorial” journey through the last more than 12 months of intensive installation activities;
  • the start of the circulation of the radioactive tracer cocktail of the CIM project; and,
  • the activities in the framework of the Grimsel Training Centre (GTC) with an outlook on the programme in 2022.

Key Topic 2: Wasteforms and their Behaviour

This research aims to improve understanding of the behaviour of various wastes in geological disposal facilities in order to better quantify the processes controlling radionuclide, chemical and gas release from waste forms, to improve the quality of models used in safety assessments and to adequately define the types and magnitudes of uncertainties associated with various processes.
