Extract

The work reported here is part of a study of the leaching of individual elements from waste glasses. The first part of the paper reports on leaching of the major constituents at 30°C, and leaching of the alkalis at 2°C from glass UK189; the second part describes leaching of Sr, Cs, Tc and various actinides from glasses UK189 and UK209. Compositions are given in Table 1.
