Description

From the Back Cover The safe management of radioactive wastes is of paramount importance in gaining both governmental and societal support for nuclear energy. The scope of this new textbook is to provide a comprehensive perspective on all types of radioactive wastes as to how they are created, classified, characterized, and disposed. Written to emphasize how geology and radionuclide chemistry impact waste management, this book is primarily designed for engineers who have little background in geology with low-level wastes, decommissioning wastes, high-level wastes and spent nuclear fuel. This textbook provides the most up-to-date information available on waste management in several countries. The content of this work includes transporting radioactive materials to disposal facilities. The textbook cites numerous case studies to illustrate past practices, current methodologies and to provide insights on how radioactive wastes may be managed in the future. An international perspective on waste management is also provided to help the readers better understand the diversity in approaches while highlighting what many countries have in common. Review questions for classroom use are provided at the end of each chapter.

About the Author William R Roy is a Professor/Lecturer in the Department of Nuclear, Plasma, and Radiological Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is a former Senior Geochemist at the Illinois State Geological Survey. His academic background includes a BS and MA in Geology at Indiana University, and a PhD in Soil Physical Chemistry at the University of Illinois. He has led numerous research projects concerning the management of hazardous, radioactive, urban, agricultural, and coal utilization wastes, and their impacts on groundwater and soil quality. He has authored or co-authored 109 journal papers, technical reports, and symposia contributions. He has also authored 16 book chapters on environmental chemistry and coal and co-authored a textbook on managing radioactive wastes for the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm where he taught a summer course. He currently teaches a course on managing radioactive wastes at Illinois, and one course on environmental restoration and waste management for the University of Denver.
