  • Disposal of radiation waste in glacial ice
    Patent number: 6714617
    Abstract: Encapsulating calcined radioactive waste in strong, corrosion-resistant spheres of dimensions such that heat from the radiation melts the ice at a rate which brings the spheres to the bottom of the permanent icefield in a relatively short time, with the resulting waste ultimately being no more hazardous than natural uranium ore.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 26, 2001
