Glass offers improved means of storing UK's nuclear waste Phys.Org University of Sheffield researchers have shown, for the first time, that a method of storing nuclear waste normally used only for high level waste, could provide a safer, more efficient, and potentially cheaper, solution for the storage and ultimate . |
Glass Offers Improved Means of Storing UK's Nuclear Waste
Product Design & Development -
ILW makes up more than three quarters of the volume of material
destined for geological disposal in the UK. Currently the UK's preferred
method is to encapsulate ILW in specially formulated cement. The waste
is mixed with cement and sealed in steel drums, ...
Vitrification could improve safety of ILW treatment
The Engineer -
Studies have found that vitrifying intermediate-level nuclear waste
(ILW) is a viable alternative to encapsulating waste in specially
formulated cement. ILW makes up more than three quarters of the volume
of material destined for geological disposal in the UK, ...
