The major engineering problem assoicated with the storage of high<br />

level wastes is:<br />

A) accidental criticality<br />

B) heat production<br />

C) theft of 239-Pu contained in the waste<br />

D) the high content of transuranic elements<br />

E) chemical corrosiveness<br />

The correct answer is: B<br />

High level waste, which includes spent reactor fuel, liquid waste<br />

from the solvent extraction process, and solids into which such<br />

liquids have been converted, emits significant decay heat. This<br />

heat can have an adverse effect on engineered and geologic<br />

materials.
