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).

Physics Today, 1973
Nuclear fission can provide a major share of our energy needs over the next several decades. But to fulfill this promise, we must learn to manage the radioactive wastes that arise in a multiplicity of chemical and physical forms at every stage of the nuclear fuel cycle, and to manage them by technically, politically and socially acceptable means.

This review presents a synoptic status of the literature published on radioactive waste management programs around the globe in 2008. The review includes geological disposal and depository characterizations, waste form development and property evaluation, clays as engineered barrier and repository material, mobility and fate in environmental ...

Radioactive waste is any material—liquid, solid or gas—without further use, which contains or is contaminated with radionuclides at concentrations or activities exceeding the clearance levels established by the regulatory authority. To protect the public and the environment from avoidable exposures, radioactive waste management should include a whole ...

Management of Radioactive Wastes
1986Radioactivity 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.

For purposes of management, radioactive wastes are categorized as defense wastes or civilian wastes. Defense wastes include all government-generated nuclear waste, most of which come from the national weapons program, although a small part result from nondefense government research and development activities.

Management of radioactive waste
Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, 1975The safe management of the solid radioactive waste material generated by the various operations that make up the rapidly growing nuclear electric power industry, the nuclear reactors themselves, and the plants which provide new fuel for these reactors and process the spent fuel which results from reactor operations are discussed.
