Description

The source and current treatment system of solid radioactive waste in CPR1000 was introduced. Adoption of incineration technology in solid waste treatment was compared with current process at a typical NPP site with 4 reactors. Conclusions showed that both in NPP's low and intermediate level solid waste minimization and in disposal cost saving, incineration technology has significant advantages. (authors)
