- Abstract
The cost of conditioning and final disposal of radwastes is determined on the basis of an analysis of the officially accepted indices. It is shown that depending on the category the specific costs range from several hundreds of thousands to several millions of rubles per cubic meter of the initial radwastes. Some basic assumptions for choosing the best of the existing technologies and (or) developing new solutions for minimizing the volume of liquid wastes are formulated. It is confirmed experimentally that this problem can be solved by comparatively low-cost methods using the inherent properties of the initial solutions and without radically changing the existing technological schemes.
