Overview of high-level radioactive waste management studies

Studies on waste fixation in low solubility silicate glasses and advanced disposal concepts for solidified high-level radioactive wastes at the Pacific Northwest Laboratory are reviewed. Waste disposal concepts being evaluated include geologic, seabed, ice sheet, extraterrestrial, and transmutation....
