Description

Present programmatic planning by the Department of Energy's National Waste Terminal Storage Program is directed toward the receipt and emplacement of a variety of waste types and forms in a mined geological repository. The repository would accept spent fuel (SF), reprocessed commercial high-level waste (CHLW) including West Valley waste (WVW), contact- and remote-handled commercial transuranic (TRU) waste, and defense high-level waste (DHLW). This paper presents the results of a conceptual design study for a multiwaste receiving and packaging facility located at a salt repository site
