Nuclear Waste Disposal

Science, 1982
Problems associated with safe disposal of spent fuel rods, uranium mill tailings, high and low-level nuclear waste are reviewed. The pros and cons of reprocessing, low-level sites, geologic repositories and use of borosilicate waste forms are discussed. (JMT)

Nuclear Waste Disposal

Science, 2005
CELL BIOLOGY Quality-control systems within the cytosol are important for the overall health of the cell; aberrant proteins (incorrectly assembled or damaged during use) may not function properly, and the cell has mechanisms for disposing of such waste (and recycling the components) if they cannot be repaired. Gardner et al. find that a similar quality-

Subseabed Disposal of Nuclear Wastes

Science, 1981
Fine-grained clay formations within stable (predictable) deep-sea regions away from lithospheric plate boundaries and productive surface waters have properties that might serve to permanently isolate radioactive waste. The most important characteristics of such clays are their vertical and lateral uniformity, low permeability, very high cation ...

Borehole Disposal of Nuclear Waste

SPE/IADC International Drilling Conference and Exhibition, 2021
Abstract Approximately 370 000 tons of high-level radioactive waste exists. Some nations have mature projects for disposing of such waste in mined repositories hundreds of meters below ground. Emplacement in boreholes of greater depth could be a cost-efficient and fast alternative, particularly for nations with relatively small amounts ...

Nuclear waste disposal

Electronics and Power, 1978
Public concern about nuclear waste is an important factor in determining how rapidly our nuclear generating capacity can be expanded. It is therefore important that those who advocate expansion of our nuclear programme should understand the real problems of nuclear waste; how it is handled now; how it will be disposed of in the future; and why it will ...

Nuclear Energy and Waste Disposal

2020
A field of subsurface environmental engineering which is likely to (re-)receive enormous societal attention is the fate of vast amounts of nuclear waste world-wide. One of the most likely options, given today’s state of knowledge, is permanent geological storage.

Nuclear Waste Disposal

1991
Problems associated with nuclear power are often magnified in the public eye. But the problems of nuclear waste disposal are in fact complex and serious. These problems are being solved, but their solution requires ingenuity and commitment.
