The 11 papers describe several processes for separating nuclear waste into a small volume of highly radioactive material to be buried very deep and a large volume of less radioactive material to be buried in cheaper, shallower facilities. Some inventory the amount and type of nuclear waste currently

Radioactive wastes resulting from over 40 years of production of nuclear weapons in the U. S. are currently stored in 273 underground tanks at the U. S. Department of Energy Hanford site, Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory, Oak Ridge Reservation, and Savannah River site. Combined, tanks at these sjtes contain approximately 94,000,000 gallons of waste in a variety of forms including liquid, concrete-like salt cake, and various sludges. More than 730,000,000 curies of several radioactive isotopes are present in the underground tanks. Certainly, one of the greatest...
