What do nuclear power plants do with their waste products?
Nuclear waste can be divided into two types, high level, and low level. Low level nuclear waste is materials that have been exposed to nuclear materials, such as tritiated water, pieces of contaminated clothing, contaminated tools, materials that have been in the nuclear reactor or with the high level waste, earth that has had contaminated water soak into it, and so on. Some of these are stored at the plant, and others are shipped off to low level waste storage facilities. They are separated according to need. Some may need to be stored for a period of decades or centuries while the materials in them decays, and others may need to be stored for centuries. High level waste needs to cool off before anything can be done with it, so when it is removed from a reactor, it is put into a spent fuel pool where it is cooled with water while the short term isotopes in it decay to the point that they do not give off too much heat. This takes several years. At that point, the waste may be moved to what is called dry cask storage, where it is held until someone decides what to do with it on a more permanent basis. Some countries allow waste to be reprocessed and some do not. The United States does not, and since no one has figured out how to store waste over a long term, the waste accumulates at the plants that produced it. This is not a good solution because the plants are nearly all sitting on the shore or on river or lake banks, where they are exposed to some degree. The French have been very aggressive with reprocessing nuclear waste, and do it for a number of other countries. This is fine, except that the reprocessing has its own set of possibilities of disaster, the very reason the United States does not allow reprocessing. There are technologies being developed, such as energy amplifiers or accelerator driven systems, that may be able to use the nuclear waste as an energy source, reducing it to radiologically inert material in the process. We do not know if this will work.

When waste water clean is it really clean?
They are three types of waste water 1. Industrial waste water 2. Black water (Toilets) 3. Grey water (Domestic waste water) Out of those Black water is not treated and the remaining two are treated. Waste water is 99.9% pure and the remaining 0.1% constitute all the waste. While salt water is 95% pure. If we develop a suitable technology we can pure that waste water and can reuse . But up to date Grey water is cleaned by no of processes and the purified water is used for Gardening and Toilet flush
