Underground Criticality in Geologic Disposal

MRS Proceedings, 1996
ABSTRACTDisposition of weapons fissile material as once-through MOx fuel in reactors or immobilization in waste glass would result in end products requiring geologic disposal. Similar considerations apply to some spent fuels in a geologic repository.

SOME CONSIDERATIONS IN UNDERGROUND WASTEWATER DISPOSAL

Journal AWWA, 1970
The number of deepwells for wastewater disposal is increasing throughout the country. Recognizing the need for better knowledge of this practice, and of its physical and public policy consequences, the Ohio River Valley Water Sanitation COMMISSION (ORSANCO) has issued a monograph, “Perspective on the Regulation of Underground Injection of Wastewaters.”

Modeling of underground disposal of liquid wastes

Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics, 2008
We consider a mathematical model of injection of a pollutant-containing solution into a stratum covered with a weakly penetrable clayey layer (water-confining stratum). The novelty of the statement of the problem lies in taking account of the linear action of pollutants on the buffer (protective) capabilities of the swelling clayey layer covering the ...

Acidic waste disposal by underground injection

Journal of Geochemical Exploration, 1998
Abstract The disposal of acidic waste by subsurface injection is one of the alternatives for recycling, neutralization, or disposal on land. Especially if the reaction between acid and rock produces harmless products, underground injection is a sound waste-treatment technique.

Disposal of Toxic Wastes in Underground Repositories

1990
The problematics of a safe, biocycle—isolated and long—term disposal of hazardous wastes has assumed the significance of an important Research + Development (R+D) task ever since the beginning of industrial usage of nuclear enery. From the mid 1960’s onwards public authorites, research institutions and universities of the Federal Republic of Germany ...

Underground waste disposal: concepts and misconceptions

Environmental Science & Technology, 1970
Waste-injection wells are becoming popular, but the feld is still plagued by some fundamental misunderstandings. No accurate figures are available, due to variations between different states and companies in reporting requirements, but it appears there are about 40,000 saltwater injection wells operated by the petroleum industry in the U.S., either for

Underground Disposal of Wastes in Britain

1981
Abstract The requirement of the Control of Pollution Act 1974 to license all waste disposal facilities, has identified 25 sites in England and Wales where wastes are discharged under gravity to disused mineral workings. The problems and advantages of waste disposal into coal mines and salt cavities are discussed, and the future potential for ...

Underground Radioactive Waste Disposal Concept

2002
The paper presents some solution for radioactive waste disposal. An underground disposal of radioactive waste is proposed in deep boreholes of greater diameter, fitted with containers. In northern part of Croatia, the geological data are available on numerous boreholes.
