What are the different types of radioactive waste?
In the U.S., radioactive waste is divided into three main types, classified according to their activity, their heat generation potential, and what they physically contain. These three main levels are low level waste (LLW), transuranic waste (TRU), and high level waste (HLW). For each of these types of waste, there is a specific disposal solution -- above ground storage or shallow burial for low level waste and deep repository storage for transuranic and high level wastes. In most other countries, nuclear waste is categorized as low level waste, intermediate level waste, and high level waste. The reason for this different classification system is that in the U.S. waste is classified based on where it comes from; in most other countries, waste is classified according to what the effects of the waste might be. In both classifications, low level waste represents about 90% of all radioactive waste
What has the author L J Jardine written?
L. J. Jardine has written: 'A review of metal-matrix encapsulation of solidified radioactive high-level waste' -- subject(s): Radioactive waste disposal, Metal cladding
Does nuclear waste glow green?
No- but it looks good in the comics. Most radioactive waste does not glow in ANY color. Very high level radioactive may exhibit Cherenkov radiation effects, and glow blue or purple.
Why are current methods of waste disposable inadequate?
It is not true. Currently; there are well established methods and approaches to deal with radioactive waste based on the waste form (solid, liquid. gaseous) and the radioactivity level (low, intermediate, high). There are well practiced regulations and laws to deal with radioactive waste to protect the public and workers from being exposed to any unjustified hazards or radiations from radioactive waste.
How can a radioactive substance can be made safe?
It needs to be kept somewhere secure to decay, this can take many years for high level waste, or a few months for low level
