Thermochemical Database (TDB) Project Publications
Chemical Thermodynamics Series
The Chemical Thermodynamics Series
comprises review reports dealing with data selection for particular elements or groups of elements
and state-of-the-art reports
focusing on the application chemical thermodymanics to particular systems of interest in radiactive waste management.
The NEA Thermochemical Database (TDB) project has so far published ten
review reports. These books are indispensable when using
the selected TDB data, as they contain detailed information about which
source data were used in the selection procedure, how the selection was
done, and information about areas where more experimental data are needed.
The use of selected data
without these publications is not recommended. These reports address particular topics related to the application of chemical thermodynamics in the context of radioactive waste management. The first deals with the chemical thermodynamics of solid solutions.

Other TDB publications
Modelling in Aquatic Chemistry
Originally published in 1997, the book Modelling in Aquatic Chemistry contains useful information on how to use the selected values of the TDB reviews in performance assessment calculations for radioactive waste disposal, as well as general information on thermodynamic modelling. Follow this link for the complete text.
The Use of Thermodynamic Databases in Performance Assessment, Workshop Proceedings, Barcelona, Spain, 2001
Performance assessment of repository concepts for the geological disposal of long-lived radioactive waste relies on the availability of thermodynamic data for many radionuclides and other elements under a wide range of physico-chemical conditions. This publication contains the full papers and summary discussion records of a workshop attended by scientists active in the field of chemical thermodynamics and experts in repository performance assessment who use the thermochemical databases for their evaluations. During the workshop, participants discussed current experimental and theoretical standpoints, new data requirements and the peculiarities of their application in performance assessment. This publication can be purchased from the OECD Online Bookshop.
