The temperature of radioactive waste can vary significantly depending on its type and age. Freshly produced high-level radioactive waste, such as spent nuclear fuel, can be extremely hot, reaching temperatures of several hundred degrees Celsius due to the decay of radioactive isotopes. Over time, as the isotopes decay, the heat generation decreases, but it can still remain warm for thousands of years. Proper management and cooling systems are essential to handle this heat safely.
is coal ash, clinker, and smoke hot when it leaves to coal plant/
Most radioactive waste is sealed in special containers, and buried underground. Medical waste that may be radioactive is taken to landfills.
Yes, the process of fission produces radioactive waste.
Robert E. Berlin has written: 'Radioactive waste management' -- subject(s): Radioactive waste disposal, Radioactive waste sites
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.
Yes, fusion does not create long-lived radioactive waste like fission does.
Radioactive hazardous waste gives off radiation. This includes materials such as spent nuclear fuel, radioactive medical waste, and contaminated laboratory equipment. Proper handling and disposal of radioactive waste is crucial to protect human health and the environment.
No. The products of nuclear fusion are not radioactive.
What type of reaction produces the most dangerous radioactive waste?
Yes, fusion does not produce long-lived radioactive waste like nuclear fission.
