Description

Consolidated Edison's Indian Point Station has significantly reduced radwaste generation from a high of 56,000 cubic feet in 1981 to less than 8,000 cubic feet in 1987. The success of the volume reduction program has been its concentration on radwaste source minimization and end-of-pipe wastestream volume reduction. This paper describes the results of the program and the overall multiphased volume reduction approach
