Description

As many countries explore options for disposing of highly radioactive solid wastes, the need for secure, long-term solutions becomes apparent. This text examines the process of placing these wastes deep underground in engineered, purpose-built repositories. While surface and shallow repositories for less radioactive wastes are already in operation, the nuclear industry faces the significant challenge of proving long-term safety. This book addresses the necessity of demonstrating that a repository can contain waste for extended periods. The goal is to ensure that any future releases pose no significant risk to human health or the environment. By looking at the physics and utilizing natural analogues, this work provides insight into building confidence regarding the long-term safety and stability of geological disposal methods. It is a necessary resource for those studying the engineering and environmental aspects of nuclear waste management.

Key Features

Explores the engineering of purpose-built repositories designed for the deep underground disposal of highly radioactive solid wastes.

Provides context on existing surface and shallow repositories currently in operation for less radioactive waste materials.

Addresses the industry challenge of proving that waste containment will prevent health and environmental risks over long periods.

Discusses methods for building confidence in the long-term safety of repositories through the study of natural analogues.

Focuses on the technical aspects of ensuring waste remains contained to prevent future environmental impact.
