Performance Assessment for Depleted Uranium Disposal in a Near-Surface Disposal Facility
Materials Research Society Symposium Proceedings, 2008The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has conducted a technical analysis to assess the potential impacts of disposal of large quantities of depleted uranium in a nearsurface disposal facility. The nature of the radiological hazards associated with depleted uranium presents challenges to the estimation of long-term effects from its disposal

Intertemporal and Spatial Location of Disposal Facilities [PDF]
, 2004 This paper studies the optimal capacity and location of a sequence of landfills and points out the interactions between both decisions. The decision capacity has some spatial implications, because it afects the feasible region for the rest of landfills, and some temporal mplications, because the capacity determines the lifetime of the landfill and ...
