Waste Treatment Process
Pretreatment Plant
At a Hanford Site pretreatment plant, liquid
waste is separated into two streams high-level
and low-activity radioactive waste.
PRETREATMENT
Underground waste tank
Waste is prepared for the vitrification process
by mixing it with silica and other glass-forming
material to form a slurry mixture.
VITRIFICATION/PROCESSING
Low-activity radioactive waste
High-level radioactive waste
The mixtures are fed into high-temperature
melters where they are heated with electrical
current for several days to form a molten glass.
High-temperature melters

Waste Treatment Process
STORAGE/DISPOSAL
The containers are then welded shut and the
exterior is decontaminated.
The molten material is then poured into large
stainless steel containers and returned to a
solid state by cooling for several days.
The low-activity radioactive waste containers are
stored in a cement-lined trench on site. The
high-level radioactive waste containers are
stored until shipped to a federal facility for
permanent disposal.
