About this title

Synopsis

Radiation and radioactive substances have many beneficial applications, ranging from power generation to uses in medicine, industry and agriculture. Radioactive waste must be managed in such a way as to avoid imposing an undue burden on future generations; that is, the generations that produce the waste have to seek and apply safe, practicable and environmentally acceptable solutions for its long term management. This paper examines the management of waste and residue management facility which includes the study of radioactive waste classification, waste types, predisposal management of radioactive waste, storage and characterization of radioactive waste, transport of radioactive waste and immobilization and/or stabilization of radioactive waste. The aim of radioactive and residues waste management should be to minimize waste generation and to produce waste in a form that conforms with the requirements for subsequent handling, processing, transport and storage, or that meets the acceptance requirements for disposal.
