This book contains contributions from pure and applied  scientists and other representatives from Europe, North America, and  Russia, who are, or have been, actively involved in the field of  radioactive waste management and disposal. First-hand experience of  specific problems associated with defence-related wastes in the USA  and the Russian Federation is presented, and current plans are  described for the disposal of solid wastes arising from civilian  nuclear power production programmes in other countries, including  Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Germany and the UK. \u003cbr\u003e  The book provides a good insight into ongoing research at local and  national level within Russia, devoted to the safe disposal of  defence-related radioactive waste. It also demonstrates how existing  expertise and technology from civilian nuclear waste management  programmes can be applied to solving the problems created by nuclear  defence programmes. \u003cbr\u003e  Contributions address methods of immobilisation, site selection  methodology, site characterisation techniques and data interpretation,  the key elements of safety\/performance assessments of planned deep  (geological) repositories for radioactive waste, and radionuclide  transport modelling. Concerns associated with certain specific nuclear  waste disposal concepts and repository sites are also presented.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1998-06-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9780792351122\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792351122\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-5112-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 340\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359139328140,"sku":"9780792351122","price":198.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792351122.jpg?v=1755102184","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792351122","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
