Disposal of High-Level Nuclear Waste: Is It Possible?
Science, 1990High-level nuclear wastes (HLW) is defined as a high concentration of radioactive elements that will remain dangerous for a length of time - up to a few million years - if released to the biosphere. The question can high-level nuclear wastes be disposed? remains unanswered.

Biosphere Model for High Level Waste Repository
Risk Analysis, 1997Method for environmental impact modeling involving uncertainty, overcoming the disadvantage of providing only one upper bound based on accumulated effects from all extreme events. This method provides a suite of upper and lower bounds based on any subset of such extreme events, to be chosen among by the decision maker.

Sintered Glasses for High-Level Wastes
MRS Proceedings, 1996ABSTRACTThe objective of the work was to evaluate the long-term capacity of sintered glass to retain high-level nuclear wastes (HLW) in near-repository conditions. We have studied the corrosion behavior of waste forms partially devitrified (43 vol.%) in different aqueous media ...

In a rational world it would seem convenient to classify the many kinds of radioactive waste as high-level, medium-level, and low-level, according to the intensity of radiation they emit. This is sometimes done, but there is no agreement as to where the boundaries should be drawn.

High Level Waste Repository Selection
2001Of the many multiple criteria studies, probably the most well-known is the study conducted by Woodward-Clyde Consultants concerning the location of a permanent storage facility for nuclear waste. Nuclear waste from power plants in the US is a major problem.

The fixation of high-level wastes in glasses
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1986Abstract A plant for the fixation of high-level wastes in borosilicate glass has been operating in France since 1978. A large plant is under construction in the U.S. for the fixation of defence high-level waste and plans for other glass fixation plants are well advanced at several sites around the world.

Siting a High-Level Waste Repository
1995This chapter provides an overview of the federal government’s attempt to deal with the dilemma posed by high-level nuclear wastes. We present some technical and political background on the need for a high-level waste repository, and then describe the various phases of the siting effort.

Management of high level radioactive wastes
Annals of Nuclear Science and Engineering, 1974Abstract Many groups of workers throughout the world are considering possible methods of storage or disposal of high level fission product wastes. It is the view of the United Kingdom that these wastes must be fixed in solids and must be retrievable, that is they should be stored and not disposed of.
