I see - I'm just reading that these fission products can be used for other industrial and medical uses (though it doesn't cite what these uses are) - is it at all possible to use up a large %age of these fission products in other procsses? Or will we have to bury most of the fission waste?
Hi, first poster here :$
I'm doing a case study on nuclear waste and was wondering whether it's possible to use all (or a large percentage of) the dangerous nuclear waste we currently dump, as fuel in fast reactors? Sorry if it's a stupid question to you but I don't know all that much about...
