Liquid Radioactive Waste
Liquid waste includes contaminated water, process solutions, and sludge, often with complex chemical and radiological compositions. Before further treatment, these waste streams are sorted and characterizes to determine the most effective processing path. The objective is then to reduce volume, remove or stabilize radionuclides, and prepare the waste for long-term storage.
