Role of geochronology of seismic fault in geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste

Umeda, Koji

The spent fuel from nuclear power generation is chemically processed at a fuel reprocessing plant for use as new fuel. After reprocessing spent fuel and recovery of the uranium and plutonium, the resultant high-level radioactive liquid waste is mixed with raw materials used to make glass. The vitrified waste is encapsulated in stainless steel containers and placed into temporary storage for 30 to 50 years to cool. It will subsequently be placed in a deep underground, geological disposal repository, at a depth of at least 300 m.
