Cementitious Matrices for Low- and Intermediate-Level Radioactive Waste Immobilization reports research progress in this context, reviewing both traditional solidification methodologies and state-of-the-art developments in cementation technologies that promise to fulfill safety functions more dependably and ensure closer compliance with environmentally conscious practices and regulations. The book begins by classifying and characterizing radioactive wastes and explaining the chemistry of cementitious matrices, facilitating the choice of solidification agents and processing equipment. It offers guidelines for the selection of bonding materials, such as hydraulic cement or polymers, and discusses several admixtures and adsorbents to enhance embedding, binder properties, and contaminant stabilization.

The book also includes statistical techniques for generating response surface models for large, complicated applications and case studies that collate the international authoring team's firsthand insights into optimized handling of immobilized waste forms.
