Fig.1-9 Estimated behavior of expansion of slurry and rise of the supernatant water level in a storage container

Estimated behavior of the overflow of supernatant water is as follows: carbonate slurry in a storage container generates supernatant water because of gravity sedimentation. Simultaneously, hydrogen gas is generated by radiolysis in the settled slurry layer, and it pushes up the supernatant water along with the slurry, causing an overflow.
