Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 1996 Nirex's task is the deep disposal of between 200,000 and 275,000 m 3 of intermediate level radioactive waste. The modelling of the disposal concept indicates that 99.9% of the radioactivity will be contained by the multi-barrier system, leaving long-lived species, such as 36 Cl, 129 I and 238 U daughter products, as potential sources of exposure ...

Disposal of Radioactive Wastes
Science, 1984Scientists appointed by the International Council of Scientific Unions have concluded that nuclear wastes may be safely disposed of using current technology. Interim storage for 50 to 100 years greatly reduces the problem of thermal loading at the final disposal sites, but more research devoted to such interim storage is needed.

Disposal of Radioactive Wastes in the Ocean
Health Physics, 1961Oceanographlc problems associated with the peaceful uses of nuclear energy are outiined to indicate what is now known concerning the various pertinent physical, chemical, biological, and geological phenomena in the sea which determine the safe capacity of any segment of the sea to receive nuclear materials.

The Safe Disposal of Radioactive Wastes
Royal Society of Health Journal, 1960Methods used in Great Britain for the disposal of radioactive wastes are reviewed, and methods suggested for future disposal are discussed. It is pointed out that legislative control of disposal has been adequate, but conditions may alter in the future. The provisions of the proposed Radioactive Substances Bill are outlined. (C.H.)

International Journal of Radiation Applications and Instrumentation. Part C. Radiation Physics and Chemistry, 1989
Abstract The aim of radioactive and non-radioactive waste management is to protect man and the environment from unacceptable risks. Protection criteria for both should therefore be based on similar considerations. From overall protection criteria, performance criteria for subsystems in waste management can be derived, for example for waste disposal ...

The disposal of radioactive waste; i.e., its safe, longterm isolation from the biosphere, is a key problem of the peaceful uses of nuclear energy. The questions related to this aspect presently are in the forefront of public discussion about nuclear power. Some of the reasons for this pronounced public interest are: a.

Physics in Technology, 1985
The Swedish concept of deep underground nuclear waste disposal is described. This system is based on multiple barriers isolating the fuel from the biosphere. The barriers are: the spent fuel material, which has a very low solubility; the copper canister with its very high corrosion resistance in the actual environment; the buffer material, which limits

Disposal of Radioactive Wastes
Journal AWWA, 1957Now we must look into the very tangled problem of how the radiation gets to the people. It is a long way from Eniwetok to Chicago or Bombay. A power station in Oslo or Moscow is a far remove from Johannesburg. Yet all these places are in the same ocean of air ; all are surrounded by the interconnecting oceans of water.
