Immobilization of High-Level Waste.

DE81025595

Publication Date	1981
Personal Author	Gould, T. H.
Page Count	32
Abstract	The development of technology to immobilize high-level radioactive waste into durable solid forms in an ongoing program under the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Nuclear Waste Management. This program is managed by the DOE Savannah River Operations Office, with technical assistance from the Atomic Energy Division of E. I. duPont de Nemours and Company. Participants in the program include the waste-producing sites, DOE laboratories, industrial laboratories and universities. This paper describes immobilization of high-level waste at Savannah River, summarizes the program to develop waste forms, and reviews the waste form evaluation and selection process.
