This session will focus on the treatment and disposal of low and high level nuclear wastes from commercial power generation, fuel reprocessing, and defense operations. Technologies for interim, short-term, and long-term storage and disposal are of interest, including mature processes as well as new and innovative technologies. The goal of the session will be to identify and provide solutions to materials issues in the global integration of waste treatment technologies.

Specific topics will include:

FJ-10.1 Waste form development, including glass, ceramic, and metallic waste forms

FJ-10.2 Challenging waste constituents, such as actinides, noble metals, and volatile species

FJ-10.3 Waste form modeling, performance testing, and advanced characterization techniques

FJ-10.4 Design and operation of waste immobilization facilities

FJ-10.5 Repository design, requirements, and licensing
