Radioactive isotope, nuclear fuel material and radiation generators are utilized in research institutes, universities, hospitals, private enterprises, etc. As a result, various low-level radioactive wastes (hereinafter referred to as non-nuclear radioactive wastes) are produced. Disposal site for non-nuclear radioactive wastes have not been settled yet and those wastes are stored in storage facilities of each operator for a long period. The Advanced Volume Reduction Facilities (AVRF) are built to produce waste packages so that they satisfy requirements for shallow underground disposal. In the AVRF, low-level beta-gamma solid radioactive wastes produced in the Nuclear Science Research Institute are mainly treated. To produce waste packages meeting requirements for disposal safely and efficiently, it is necessary to cut large radioactive wastes into pieces of suitable size and segregate those depending on their types of material. This report summarizes activities of pretreatment to dispose of non-nuclear radioactive wastes in the AVRF.

Melting treatment of low-level radioactive wastes (LLW) is considered to be a promising technology for the preparation of a stable solid that will be disposed of in near surface repositories. This is because of large reduction of waste volume and production of a stable homogeneous solidified product. In the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI), the construction of the Waste Volume Reduction Facilities (WVRF) has been in progress since 1999. In advance of operation of the WVRF, we have been conducting melting tests of non-metallic solid wastes with the aim of establishing the optimum melting condition for preparation of a stable solid that is suitable for disposal. We have reviewed a part of the melting test conducted in our program.
