There is no practical way of making fission by-products safe. However, by keeping them in thick lead containers, an opaque wall to radiation, the environment can be protected from their dangers. Other alternatives are being considered.

Is Pandora safe?
It is very safe as long as it is made correctly. You can purchase one at PandoraSales.com
What is a crows nest made out of?
it is made up of sticks, old grass and whatever else they found lying around just so they can keep their eggs safe.
What is the Temptations most famous song?
I think that it is safe to say that "My Girl " is the most famous song made by The Temptations.
Who made the song mountain music famous?
Mountain Music is both the name of an album and a song by the band Alabama. Others have covered it, but I think it's pretty safe to say that Alabama themselves made it famous.
Could you get a list of song titles with safe in the titles?
(Artist) Title(Massive Attack) Safe From Harm(Westlife) Safe(Phil Wickham) Safe(Men Without Hats) The Safety Dance(The Cribs) Be Safe(David Bowie) Play It Safe(Britt Nicole) Safe(Taylor Swift) Safe And Sound
Pros and cons of fission energy?
Pros: Relatively easy reaction start Usability in power plants Relatively safe if operated correctly Cons: relatively rare fuel Radioactive byproducts Byproducts can be used for weapons.
Is nuclear fission extremely safe?
Not at all.
How do enzymes in your body make chemical reactions occur at a safe temperature?

What is the byproduct of nuclear energy?
We generally consider nuclear fission as the "splitting" of atoms. In this process, a large atomic nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei. The smaller nuclei are called fission fragments, and they are radioactive. Making nuclear energy, which we do in nuclear reactors, results in the production of large quantities of highly radioactive fission products. These byproducts require that we cool the spent fuel for long periods, and also that we store it for centuries so that the radioactive materials have a chance to decay and become less hazardous.
Is it safe to put penniesin a fish tank?
No. The different metals react with the water, and the byproducts are poisonous to fish. Only use natural rocks, glass or plastics
What adverse reactions are possible when using proton pump inhibitors?
The proton pump inhibitors are also very safe, but have been associated with rare but severe skin reactions.
Is nuclear fission safe?
It is inherently dangerous to living beings because it generates a great amount of radioactivity. However it can be made safe by thorough design and engineering, and careful operation. The principle has to be to contain the radioactivity, and if this is done then it becomes safe.
Is it safe to mix lamictal with suboxone?
My doctor prescribes me lamictal, cellexa and suboxone and I have not had any adverse reactions
What was the coolgardie safe made of?
the coolgardie safe is made of used japanese condoms
How did spanish make the missions safe?
They made them safe by building forts with soldiers in them.
Is nuclear fusion more dangerous then nuclear fission?
We don't know much about fusion as it is still very experimental. It will not produce the dangerous fission products that fission does, but it may have other dangers unknown as yet. Nuclear fusion has more destructive potential than fission. Fusion is the principle powering the H-bomb developed in the Cold War. Just to put the power of a Fusion bomb in perspective, it is detonated by a fission bomb half the size of the one dropped on Japan. THAT'S JUST THE DETONATOR.
What are the hazards of nuclear fusion reactions?
These are almost entirely to do with the release of radiation from the reactor. All reactors produce active fission products, and these must be kept contained in the reactor primary circuit or secondary containment, whatever the fault conditions that might occur, either from internal faults or external events like earthquakes or aircraft crashes. This is a large part of the design and operating effort that makes a reactor safe to operate.
