Charles W.Forsberg, inEncyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology (Third Edition), 2003 III.BStorage Radioactive wastesare stored to (1) allow some radioactive wastes to decay to nonradioactive wastes, (2) reduce transport risks; (3) provide lag storage between waste generator, treatment, ...
Fig. 1. Classification of radioactive liquid waste, adapted from [9]. When nuclear facilities are shut down, enormous amounts of contaminated soil, debris, concrete, thermal insulation, and other materials are produced. Long-lived radionuclides are present in very small amounts in both VLLW and...
By definition, practically everything that does not belong to one of the three categories discussed above is considered low-level waste. This name is misleading because some wastes, though low in transuranic content, may contain very high beta and gamma activity. The current method of low-level...

Using a definition provided by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), we are referring to a waste originating from the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel or any other waste with an activity similar to fuel reprocessing wastes. In addition, the waste generates a high rate of heat. ...

Communities in Cumbria and Lincolnshire are being consulted about the possibility of building a geological disposal facility where nuclear waste would be buried underground. The UK hopes to have one by 2050, but there remains some opposition.
Therefore, a global waste growth is expected, with serious implications on ecological balance, which would also threaten the global sustainable development and human well-being. A search for safe compositions for better infrastructure facilities is mandatory. After reprocessing the spent fuel and ...
RA2, FNE, and ETS water samples, with similar Cl/Br ratios and Cl− concentrations, have been plotted in an intermediate position, but also close to the water affected by anthropogenic and urban effects, represented by the “Leaching of solid waste” field. Figure 4. Cl vs. Cl/Br (...
Radioactive waste definition: the radioactive by-products from the operation of a nuclear reactor or from the reprocessing of depleted nuclear fuel.. See examples of RADIOACTIVE WASTE used in a sentence.
