Abstract
The results from two test burials of high-level wastes, incorporated into nepheline syenite glass and buried in contact with groundwater for 15 yr, indicate that the nuclear wastes from fuel processing for a 30 000-MW(e) nuclear power industry could be incorporated into such glass and stored beneath the water table in the waste management area of Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories without harm to the environment.Keywords
