ABSTRACT:
A container for material contaminated with a toxic substance or a radionuclide has a base with recesses. A highly absorbent cementitious material is disposed in the recesses for absorbing any liquid in the container. The cementitious material is made by mixing together a sodium bentonite clay slurry and a cement slurry at a water/solids ratio of about 1.5/1. Subsequent heating of the mixture removes capillary water without substantially dehydrating any hydrated cement.
