Downblending Contaminated Radioactive Wastes [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Monitoring and Analysis, 2015
Dilution is the mixing of radioactive waste with non-radioactive material, whereas downblending is the mixing of high-level radioactive waste with low-level radioactive waste. These processes have been applied predominantly at nuclear sites as part of the decontamination procedures for the disposal of blended wastes in licensed facilities.
