This chapter concentrates on the final disposition of radioactive materials. After explaining the difference between open and closed nuclear fuel cycles, the categories of nuclear waste, such as high and low level, are defined. Spent reactor fuel is stored in pools, generally near the reactor, until sufficient thermal and radioactive cooling occurs ...

Management of Radioactive Wastes [PDF]
, 1986 Radioactivity has always been with us. However, humankind was not aware of it until recently, primarily because there were no means to measure it. In 1896 Henri Becquerel first discovered that penetrating radiation was emitted spontaneously from a uranium compound. This phenomenon was given the name radioactivity by Pierre and Marie Curie.

Final Disposal of Radioactive Waste with High Radioactivity (Heat-Generating Radioactive Waste)
2019The radioactive wastes with high radioactivity (HAW) are those which are relatively low in volume worldwide, but represent over 90% of the total radioactivity held in wastes. The decay of radionuclides produces significant quantities of heat, which makes direct transport into a safe deposit impossible.

Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste in Clay
, 2016Keeping future generations safe from today's nuclear waste relies on this waste being effectively isolated for all time. Clay rocks, or rocks with a high clay content, offer promising isolation properties over time periods that are as long as the age of ...

AbstractThe management of radioactive waste is a very important part of the nuclear industry. The future of the nuclear power industry depends to a large extent on the successful solution of the perceived or real problems associated with the disposal of both low-level waste (LL W) and high-level waste (HL W).
