Book Characteristics of Special case Wastes Potentially Destined for Disposal at the Nevada Test Site

Download or read book Characteristics of Special case Wastes Potentially Destined for Disposal at the Nevada Test Site written by Laura L. Price and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US Dept of Energy is responsible for disposing of a variety of radioactive and mixed wastes, some of which are considered special-case waste becaise they do not currently have a clear disposal option. The DOE's Nevada Field Office contracted with Sandia National Laboratories to investigate the possibility of disposing of some of this special-case waste at the Nevada Test Site. As a part of this investigation, a literature review was performed to estimate the characteristics pf the radioactive and mixed special-case wastes that might be candidates for disposal at the Nevada Test Site. Five categories of special-case waste were identified and characterized: 1.transuranic waste, 2.fission product waste, 3.activation product waste, 4.volatile waste, and 5.sealed sources. These wastes were characterized in terms of curies per cubic meter of waste, and these characterizations will be used in future phases pf the investigation. Additionally, a summary of DOE's mixed waste inventory and descriptions of the mixed waste treatability groups are included in this report.

Book Waste Forms Technology and Performance

Download or read book Waste Forms Technology and Performance written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-09-05 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management (DOE-EM) is responsible for cleaning up radioactive waste and environmental contamination resulting from five decades of nuclear weapons production and testing. A major focus of this program involves the retrieval, processing, and immobilization of waste into stable, solid waste forms for disposal. Waste Forms Technology and Performance, a report requested by DOE-EM, examines requirements for waste form technology and performance in the cleanup program. The report provides information to DOE-EM to support improvements in methods for processing waste and selecting and fabricating waste forms. Waste Forms Technology and Performance places particular emphasis on processing technologies for high-level radioactive waste, DOE's most expensive and arguably most difficult cleanup challenge. The report's key messages are presented in ten findings and one recommendation.

Book Nuclear Weapons under International Law

Download or read book Nuclear Weapons under International Law written by Gro Nystuen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear Weapons under International Law is a comprehensive treatment of nuclear weapons under key international law regimes. It critically reviews international law governing nuclear weapons with regard to the inter-state use of force, international humanitarian law, human rights law, disarmament law, and environmental law, and discusses where relevant the International Court of Justice's 1996 Advisory Opinion. Unique in its approach, it draws upon contributions from expert legal scholars and international law practitioners who have worked with conventional and non-conventional arms control and disarmament issues. As a result, this book embraces academic consideration of legal questions within the context of broader political debates about the status of nuclear weapons under international law.
