The classification of the nuclear waste and the method of the waste disposal.
Answer to Problem 12R
The nuclear waste is of the low level type and it disposes in a spill proof container to isolated place.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The waste material that generates in a nuclear reaction is called nuclear waste. This waste is further reused or disposed to isolated space.
The nuclear waste classifies on the basis of the amount of the waste. If the amount is less then it is called low level nuclear waste and the waste in the large amount is called high level nuclear waste.
The nuclear waste disposes according to the amount and the intensity of the material. The amount of the nuclear waste in the research project is
Conclusion:
Thus, the nuclear waste is of the low level type and it disposes in a spill proof container to isolated place.
