Advancements in Geochemical Modelling for Waste Disposal: Current Capabilities and Future Innovations

Explore the current possibilities of geochemical modelling, illustrated with examples, and learn about upcoming developments. Discover the role of geochemical modelling in Belgian waste disposal programs and its potential application in new reference designs. Task group led by experts to coordinate all geochemical modelling activities within the department. Discussion includes oxidation, heat, alkaline plume, carbonation, corrosion, and radiolysis effects.

  1. Objectives • To show: • what the current possibilities are of geochemical modelling; • what our capabilities are through illustrative examples; • Which new developments we are working on • To discuss: • The role of geochemical modelling in the Belgian waste disposal programme • The possible use of geochemical modelling in the development of the new reference design

  2. Introduction • Task group “geochemical modelling” • Initiated by P. Van Iseghem • Co-ordinated by L. Wang • Will be further developed as a co-ordination group for all geochemical modelling within the department • Overview • L. Wang: principles of geochemical modelling and some basic applications • S. Salah: application to uranium geochemistry • D. Sali: application to OPHELIE mock-up • D. Jacques: geochemistry coupled to transport • A. Dierckx: role of geochemical modelling in demonstrating feasibility and safety • Discussion on role of geochemical modelling in new reference design
