Some Questions on the Fixation of Radioisotopes in Connexion with the Problem of their Safe Burial

Abstract

For the safe disposal of radioactive wastes it is essential that they be securely fixed in a suitable material for a long period. This is true regardless of the place or medium chosen for disposal. The chief source of danger in any given 'burial ground' is the threat of possible leakage resulting in the buried radioisotopes being dispersed in the environment. In recent times attention has been primarily directed to the question of disposing of the fission-produced radioisotopes which are formed in large quantities in many-countries during the release of energy through the fission of heavy nuclei in various nuclear power units (reactors). The present paper will discuss certain questions connected with the processing and disposal of wastes containing fission-produced isotopes.
