METHOD OF
BURING THE RADIOACTIVE WASTE
The burial of radioactive waste
is performed into deep layers of lithosphere and the essence of this method
consists in the drilling of a hole, formation of an artificial cavity, creation
of a viscous medium in this cavity, arrangement and portion-like accumulation of
radioactive waste in capsules with its subsequent immersion by gravity. The
novelty of this method resides in the fact that the hole drilling and cavity
formation are effected in the beds or domes of rock salt having a depth of
massif from 1 to 10 km; the viscous medium is created by injecting the rock
salt solvent and, in the process, the activity of a single capsule is preset so
as to ensure its heating and to ensure the gradient of temperatures amounting to
3 - 10 oC between the capsule surface and the viscous medium.
