This results in different management procedures for each country, while following IAEA and OECD\/NEA recommendations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRadioactive waste comes from numerous sources. The largest volumes are generated by the decommissioning and dismantling of nuclear facilities. Long-lived, medium- and high-activity waste – categorized as the most hazardous types of waste – are in fact largely produced by nuclear power reactors, spent fuel reprocessing plants and nuclear accidents.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFinal disposal of very low-activity, low-activity and very short-lived waste is well controlled. However, final solutions for certain categories, including long-lived waste, sorted waste and spent graphite waste, are not yet in place.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eManagement of Radioactive Waste\u003c\/i\u003e reviews all the possible solutions and presents those chosen by the various states, including a chapter detailing policy on radioactive waste management, taking France as an example.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJean-Claude Amiard\u003c\/b\u003e is a Doctor of Radioecology, Emeritus Research Director at the CNRS (University of Nantes, France) and former Associate Professor in Quebec and China.
