<strong>Backfill</strong> requirements<br />

Objectives of the backfill measure<br />

4) providing a chemical environment consistent with the design concept<br />

→ Limitation of soluble chlorides, sulphur-containing substances, organic materials.<br />

The chemical requirements influence the selection of the ingredients (no fly ash,<br />

no burnt slates, no slag containing materials, e.g. CEM III-cement, blast-furnace slag, etc.)<br />

5) no damage of the gallery walls<br />

→ Limitation of the autogenous swelling or shrinkage of the backfill.<br />

6) limited strength to enable the retrieval of waste packages<br />

→ Limitation of the compressive strength.<br />

A high porosity of the backfill (diffusion and flow of gases) and<br />

a high thermal conductivity (galleries with heat-generating waste) are favourable.<br />
