A third concern affecting public acceptance of nuclear power relates to nuclear waste.

So, between coal and nuclear, compare their waste products.

This is a nuclear waste storage and encapsulation facility at Hanford site in Washington State, where there are over 1,900 stainless steel capsules containing nuclear waste submerged in water.

This is a nuclear waste storage and encapsulation facility at Hanford site in Washington State, where there are over 1,900 stainless steel capsules containing nuclear waste submerged in water.

These include nuclear waste disposal, the end of the nuclear fuel cycle, legal responsibility for nuclear damage, and associated insurance of nuclear power plant operators.

In reactors, the radioactive products are the nuclear waste in spent fuel.

The physical protection system in the Maišiagala nuclear waste repository was modernized.

CA It's a nuclear power plant that is its own waste disposal solution.

For quite awhile Yucca Mountain was considered as a place to store nuclear waste.

Keeping in mind that issues of nuclear energy waste disposal have not been resolved, nuclear energy remains a security and health threat.

It also prohibits any nuclear explosions and the disposal of radioactive waste material in Antarctica.

Of special concern is the transportation of nuclear waste materials, which we have consistently opposed.

These include measures to prohibit military activities, nuclear explosions and the disposal of radioactive waste.

Nuclear power is saddled with three major unresolved risks plant safety, nuclear waste, and, most menacing of all, the risk of military proliferation.

There had been reports that nuclear waste had been buried in insecure containers in the Golan.

And they said, Would you be willing to have a nuclear waste dump in your community?

18. Finally, Papua New Guinea strongly endorsed the South Pacific Forum apos s decision to oppose the dumping of nuclear waste in the Pacific Ocean, the establishment of facilities for the storage or incineration of such waste, as well as transboundary movements of toxic waste and nuclear testing in the region.

Pools have become overcrowded in many countries, owing to the lack of permanent repositories for nuclear waste.

The storage of nuclear waste in some parts of the territory raised the spectre of ecological disaster.

Attention was also given to dealing with radioactive waste, radiation safety and the safety of nuclear installations.

Increasingly, our security is threatened by the enormous deposits of nuclear waste on land and at sea.

Benin participates regularly in seminars held by IAEA on strengthening of the safeguards system, nuclear security, non proliferation of nuclear weapons, physical protection of nuclear materials, management of radioactive waste, etc.

We believe that highest standards in nuclear safety, radiation protection, and waste management in all areas of nuclear applications are essential for the continued development of peaceful uses of nuclear energy.

There's a waste of time there's a waste of space there's a waste of energy and there's a waste of waste.

In Switzerland, back about 15 years ago, they were trying to decide where to site nuclear waste dumps.

The IAEA has assisted countries in all aspects of the application of peaceful nuclear science and technology, from nuclear power planning and development and waste management to assistance in non nuclear power technologies.

The plan of action concentrates on four main areas nuclear safety safety of nuclear fuel and radioactive waste monitoring of radioactive contamination and weapons related environmental problems.

The nuclear industry s very existence is dependent on hidden public subsidies costs borne by society in the event of nuclear disaster, as well as the costs of the still unmanaged disposal of nuclear waste.

E. Waste disposal and waste management

We can't produce nuclear power, as an energy source if we can't operate the plants or store the waste.

Of the 42 resolutions on disarmament issues adopted by the Assembly at its last session, 15 deal with various ways of controlling nuclear arms, the management of nuclear waste, the banning of nuclear tests and the elimination of nuclear weapons.

Still, the plant along with its spent nuclear fuel, extracted plutonium, and nuclear reprocessing waste poses significant radiological hazards that a military strike could disperse into the environment.

The concern is not only about highly radioactive waste resulting from powerplants but even about lower medium level radioactive waste, sometimes raising problems for further use of modern nuclear techniques in medicine.

What a waste. What a sad waste.

His delegation therefore called for strengthened technical cooperation to assist developing countries in monitoring nuclear materials and for the establishment of strict controls to regulate nuclear waste disposal activities.

Consistent with our belief in a nuclear free world, waste dumping in the Pacific Ocean is not to be encouraged.

The obstacles to general public acceptance of nuclear power relate to three major issues the proliferation risk, safety and waste.

Ensuring the safety of nuclear installations, managing radioactive waste, promoting various applications of nuclear technology and providing technical assistance all these activities depend on the confidence that nuclear energy and technology are used exclusively for peaceful purposes.

Waste!

Poland supported the main objectives of the Global Threat Reduction Initiative to strengthen the safety of nuclear waste stockpiles, and welcomed the recent adoption of the Convention on nuclear terrorism.

Radioactive waste management has emerged as one of the most difficult and complex challenges in the peaceful uses of nuclear energy.

Projections of the future contributions of nuclear energy are highly uncertain, due to the concerns that exist about safety, radioactive waste management, potential proliferation of nuclear weapons and vulnerability to terrorists.

Further recognizing the importance of the work of the Agency on nuclear power, applications of nuclear methods and techniques, nuclear safety, radiological protection and radioactive waste management, including its work directed towards assisting developing countries in all these fields,

It matters to countries that have decided to phase out nuclear power, because their plants will continue to operate for decades and will need to be decommissioned, with nuclear waste stored safely.
