  • Bourg, Ian C.; Sposito, Garrison; Bourg, Alain C.M. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2006)
    Compacted Na-bentonite clay barriers, widely used in the isolation of solid-waste landfills and other contaminated sites, have been proposed for a similar use in the disposal of high-level radioactive waste. Molecular ...
  • Noyan, Hulya; Onal, Muserref; Sarikaya, Yuksel (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2006)
    The Hancili bentonite from Turkey shows significant changes in surface area, micro- and mesoporosity, surface acidity and acid strength with heating from 100 to 900C for 2 h. The specific surface area (S) and specific ...
  • Vukovic, Zorica; Milutonovic, Aleksandra; Roz, Ljiljana; Rosic, Aleksandra; Nedic, Zoran; Jovanovic, Dusan (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2006-11)
    Bentonite from the ‘Bogovina’ coal mine in Serbia, was characterized. The influence of acid treatment on its composition, as well as mathematical descriptions of this influence are reported. The purpose of this work was ...
  • Ufer, K.; Stanjek, H.; Roth, G.; Dohrmann, R.; Kleeberg, R.; Kaufhold, S. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2008)
    Thirty six bentonite samples from 16 different locations were examined in order to demonstrate the applicability of a new Rietveld description approach for quantitative phase analysis. X-ray diffraction patterns of the ...
  • Kaufhold, Stephan; Dohrmann, Reiner (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2008)
    A method for the determination of the water-uptake capacity of powders which is said to be applicable to viscose silk, specific celluloses, soap, paint, glue, gelatine, adhesives based on starch, biological samples, and ...
  • Arslan, Mehmet; Abdioglu, Emel; Kadir, Selahattin (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Widespread alteration in the Upper Cretaceous pyroclastic units of the Tirebolu (Giresun) area, NE Turkey, has resulted in significant occurrences of bentonite with economic potential. No detailed geological, mineralogical, ...
  • Kaufhold, S.; Dohrmann, R.; Klinkenberg, M. (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    The present study compares the water-vapor adsorption capacity of bentonites (natural cation population) with the Enslin-Neff method. Water-vapor adsorption at 50% r.h. (relative humidity) or 70% r.h. is known to depend ...
  • Likos, William J.; Wayllace, Alexandra (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Methods for predicting the volume change and swelling-pressure behavior of expansive clays require detailed understanding of coupled interactions between clay microstructure and macrostructure under hydraulic, thermal, and ...
  • Ozgen, Selcuk; Yildiz, Ahmet (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    As advances in technology have led to increased use of bentonites, more high-quality bentonite has been sought. The volume of high-quality bentonites available is shrinking and use of bentonite reserves containing impurities ...
  • Juncosa, Ricardo; Navarro, Vicente; Delgado, Jordi; Vazquez, Ana (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Bentonite is often proposed as an engineered-buffer material in high-level radionuclide wastemanagement systems. For effective design of the barrier that will provide protection over the long time periods required, the ...
  • Alba, Maria D.; Castro, Miguel A.; Chain, Pablo; Orta, M. Mar; Pazos, M. Carolina; Pavon, Esperanza (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Many environmental applications in the inorganic remediation field are based on the swelling and ion-exchange capacities of smectites, even though these can be affected by hydrothermal treatment in water and acidic media. ...
  • Jodin-caumon, Marie-camille; Mosser-ruck, Regine; Rousset, Davy; Randi, Aurelien; Cathelineau, Michel; Michau, Nicolas (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    Disposal facilities in deep geological formations are considered to be a possible solution for long-term management of high-level nuclear waste (HLW). The design of the repository generally consists of a multiple-barrier ...
  • Srodon, Jan (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2010)
    The incorporation of boron (B) and nitrogen (N) into illite is the key demand-side process responsible for the diagenetic budget of these elements in sedimentary basins, with important implications for pore-water chemistry, ...
  • Schampera, Birgit; Dultz, Stefan (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    Organo-clays are of interest in the modification of anion transport properties in engineered barriers. In the present study, surface charge and wettability were assessed for tracking changes in the effective diffusion ...
  • Karakaya, Muazzez Celik; Karakaya, Necati; Kupeli, Suayip (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    A number of different types of bentonite deposits formed by hydrothermal alteration and diagenetic processes are to be found in the Ordu area of the Eastern Black Sea region. The Ca- and Na-bentonite deposits are related ...
  • Zhu, Yun; Li, Yan; Lu, Anhuai; Wang, Haoran; Yang, Xiaoxue; Wang, Changqiu; Cao, Weizheng; Wang, Qinghua; Zhang, Xiaolei; Pan, Danmei; Pan, Xiaohong (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    Mineral-microbe interactions are widespread in a number of environmental processes such as mineral weathering, decomposition, and transformation. Both clay minerals and silicate-weathering bacteria are widely distributed ...
  • Guerra, Denis L.; Silva, Emiliano M.; Lara, Weber; Batista, Adriano C . (The Clay Minerals Society, 2011)
    Mercury ion removal from waste-waters has been the subject of extensive research. The aim of the present investigation was to report the incorporation of the n-alkylamine molecules onto a bentonite surface and the capacities ...
  • Petrovic, Srdjan; Rozic, Ljiljana; Vukovic, Zorica; Novakovic, Tatjana; Stanisavljev, Dragomir (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    Microwave irradiation as a means for heating bentonites during acid activation has been investigated in the past but it has never been optimized for industrial applications. The purpose of this study was to apply a factorial ...
  • Da Paz, Simone Patricia Aranha; Angelica, Romulo Simoes; Neves, Roberto De Freitas (The Clay Minerals SocietyThe Clay Minerals Society, 2012)
    Bentonite deposits are rare in Brazil and most of their production comes from a single region. A new bentonite occurrence, the Formosa bentonite from northern Brazil, is described here. The occurrence is associated with ...
