The objectives of the project are:
 +
* to assess the use/misuse of solubility data of sparingly soluble tetravalent actinides;
 +
* to understand the coupling of major and trace element chemistry in radionuclide migration behaviour considering the extremely large exchange pool of natural minerals present in the disposal sites;
 +
* to include irreversibility in models on the mobility of radionuclides in the repository environment;
 +
* to assess to what degree the ignorance/non-inclusion of these studied slow processes leads, in performance assessment, to over-conservative, or in few cases, even too optimistic evaluations. The inclusion of such processes in PA will also be assessed

About SKIN Project

SKIN project is a 3 years (2008-2012) Collaborative Project under the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Atomic Energy Community (EURATOM)


Objectives

The objectives of the project are:

  • to assess the use/misuse of solubility data of sparingly soluble tetravalent actinides;
  • to understand the coupling of major and trace element chemistry in radionuclide migration behaviour considering the extremely large exchange pool of natural minerals present in the disposal sites;
  • to include irreversibility in models on the mobility of radionuclides in the repository environment;
  • to assess to what degree the ignorance/non-inclusion of these studied slow processes leads, in performance assessment, to over-conservative, or in few cases, even too optimistic evaluations. The inclusion of such processes in PA will also be assessed
