Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the self-sealing capacity of the Boom Clay when perturbed by an alkaline plume, by investigating the long-term evolution of hydraulic conductivity and mineralogical changes in fractured Boom Clay upon interaction with highly alkaline solutions. In a first step, percolatio...
