Welcome to EURIDICE
Research into the safety and feasibility of radioactive waste disposal in clay
PRACLAY experiment
A large-scale experiment designed to study the effect of heat on a deep clay formation.
Deep clay
Some deep clay layers in the Belgian bedrock appear to be highly suitable for the final disposal of radioactive waste.
Underground research laboratory
This is where industrial technologies are developed for disposal of radioactive waste in deep clay.
Visit
EURIDICE has its own exhibition and its underground laboratory is open to visitors.
