A Drop-In Concept for Deep Borehole Canister Emplacement
Disposal of high-level nuclear waste in deep boreholes drilled into crystalline bedrock (i.e., “granite”) is an interesting repository alternative of long standing. Work at MIT over the past two decades, and more recently in collaboration with the Sandia National Laboratory, has examined a broad...
