Kinetic simulation of uranium migration in granite fissure media of beishan, gansu, China: A case study based on the Laplace transform and inverse transform methods by Xianzhe Duan, Cong Du, Nan Li, Jiaxin Duan, Zhenping Tang

“…The following insights were obtained: (1) After 100,000 years, U-238 has a very limited diffusion depth in the matrix domain, with a diffusion range of only a few tens of millimeters, whereas it migrates relatively quickly in the fissure domain, with a maximum migration distance of about 1500 m. (2) Under the same migration time and distance, the relative concentration of nuclide U-238 in the fissure domain increases with larger gap width, hydraulic gradient, and diffusible area ratio, but decreases with higher rock porosity. (3) In the same time range, the rock masses with larger gap widths, hydraulic gradients, and diffusible area ratios have larger migration ranges, while those with higher porosities have smaller migration ranges. (4) While selecting a site for diposal of HLWs, it is recommended to choose rock masses in the granite area of Beishan with no fissures or few fissures; additionally, areas with smaller fissure widths, hydraulic gradients, and diffusible area ratios but higher rock porosity should be prioritized. …”
