The permeability and thermal conductivity of bentonite/crushed rock mixtures used as backfill for a nuclear waste repository have an important impact on the maximum radioactive load of the waste canister that can be embedded.
Both the experimental and thermodynamic results presented in this study provide important constraints to well predict the impact of nuclear waste canister corrosion in a claystone media and to better understand secondary alteration processes, which could also affect the mineralogical and chemical composition of primitive meteorites.
Among its major concerns were oil spills, the dumping of medical and nuclear waste, air and water pollution, and the impact of substances such as synthetic hormones that were regularly released into environmental reservoirs.
She has worked on natural gas drilling in Texas and Wyoming, has helped communities living near polluted shipyards in San Francisco, and covered the potential impacts of importing Italian nuclear waste through New Orleans.
