Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management. Volume III: Feasibility of Volume-Reduction Processes

摘要

This study evaluates low-level waste management technology for light water reactors and identifies the problems that must be solved within the next few years to allow for the orderly development of large-scale management of low-level radioactive wastes generated at nuclear power facilities and by the nuclear power industry in California. This report contains a survey of the state of the art of volume-reduction technology and an evaluation of this technology for application to low-level radioactive waste from LWR plants.
