| Summary: | In the study we presented the types of solutions for each type of nuclear wastes which have been analyzed, as well as the procedures for their implementation. The superiority of the waste immobilizing matrices (waste forms) are outlined mostly in this
paper, stating the pros and cons of different types of waste forms as making an analysis of the spent fuel and the production methods.
The waste majority of the nuclear waste is immobilized with borosilicate glass, on which we made a broader analysis, as well as providing solutions for the wastes difficult to incorporate in borosilicate. Fr this type of waste a ceramic or glass solution is preferred, because of its economical benefits. It was also presented the final deposit disposal configuration, and a comparative analysis between surface disposal and deep geological disposal of the nuclear waste. Finally, several suggestions for future research in this area have been provided. |
