Abstract

The supercompaction of low level solid radioactive waste has been carried out at Winfrith Technology Centre since 1989. This process for the treatment of drummed LLW was adopted because the volume reduction achieved produced significant savings in disposal costs to the national waste repository operated by British Nuclear Fuels plc at Drigg in Cumbria. A service has been offered since 1990 to other LLW-generating sites which includes supercompaction, packaging of the processed waste and transport to Drigg. (author).
