I wonder that some think that there is difficulty in disposal of radioactive waste. Toxic waste is even more difficult. Radioactivity levels reduce by time but toxicity not. There is no difficulty in disposal of radioactive wastes except the unjustified concerns of the public that oppose radioactive waste disposal in their vicinity. Currently; there are well established methods; subject to strict local and international regulations; and approaches to deal with radioactive waste based on the waste form (solid, liquid. gaseous) and the radioactivity level (low, intermediate, high). Primarily; three methods are applied:
The waste will emit radioactive particles that may harm people.
because they aren't recycling the plutonium from it.
Nuclear waste take's thousands of years to decay whilst still being radioactive.
Nuclear waste is a hazard because of the radiation it puts off. If a person or animal gets to close for too long they could have serious health problems
because if you eat it, you will die
All countries that have nuclear reactors have nuclear waste and it is always a problem, though a manageable one.
Nuclear? Possibly.
Nuclear wastes are sometimes said to be a problem too difficult to solve because the waste stays radioactive for so long. The only thing that gets rid of nuclear waste is time.
It is the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository.
its a method use in nuclear waste management where the waste is concentrated and then isolated. this method also use for non nuclear waste management.
Under present world financial conditions I would say that the very high costs of building nuclear plants is a big problem. In the long term, dealing with the radioactive waste and decommissioning the plants safely.

No, it is not.
Yes, but it is a manageable problem
Three problems associated with nuclear waste
A major drawback to the use of nuclear power is that it produces radioactive waste. This waste can pollute water sources and kill organisms.

Disposing it.
There are arguments about where to store waste.
Three problems associated with nuclear waste
fear of the waste.
The amount of radioactive waste it produces. And the problem of disposing of that waste.
