Water pollution
Most radioactive waste is sealed in special containers, and buried underground. Medical waste that may be radioactive is taken to landfills.
industrial waste, plastic, chemicals, soaps and detergents, human excreta, 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

radioactive waste go somewhere probally in a labratory
Nuclear Energy produces radioactive waste because if there isnt any sign of nuclear waste/energy in the sullotion/object then it wouldnt be counted as 'Radioactive'.
Radioactive waste is nearly always a mixture but it is possible to be a pure substance.
The waste is radioactive and therefore ionising. It can cause cancer and "radioactive poisoning"
No. The products of nuclear fusion are not radioactive.
Liquid or semiliquid waste Such waste can be anything from sewage to industrial process waste to certain types of radioactive waste, each requires different handling and processing to ensure safety.
Huh? Every element can potentially be radioactive.Here is a list of all of the naturally occurring (above trace levels) radioactive elements:bismuthpoloniumastatineradonfranciumradiumactiniumthoriumprotactiniumuranium
