Geomelting <strong>of</strong> Radioactive Waste<br />

’Geomelting’ involves mixing nuclear waste <strong>with</strong> soil or other ‘glass-formers’ in large,<br />

lined metal tanks. The mix – 20 per cent waste and 80 per cent soil – is heated through<br />

two graphite electrodes at temperatures <strong>of</strong> up to 3,000 degrees C. The molten substance<br />

is then allowed to cool and forms a large glass block that is harder than concrete. The<br />

process will enable nuclear waste to be stored safely for 200,000 years – longer than the<br />

radioactivity will last. Geomelting has been tested successfully by the American<br />

government, which is building a $53 million pilot plant in Washington state.<br />
