The paper presents the experimental findings of full-scale leach tests performed on simulated cemented waste forms for more than 20 years in salt brines and water. Measurements cover pH/Eh, density, and the composition of leachates as well as the release of radionuclides such as Cs, U and Np. Performance of the waste forms depends on the pore volume of the hardened cement which is correlated to the water/cement ratio. Cesium is released linearly with time in magnesium saturated brines leading to significant amounts (50% and above of total amount) released into the leachate. In NaCl solutions, Cs release was ranging from 20 to 30% of total amount. Uranium release is independent of duration of the leach (t > 1 a), U concentrations are cont...
