Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0032686A2] 1. A process for the final conditioning of solid, voluminous, radioactive, organic waste, which is largely of constant shape and in particular contains nuclear fuel, such as rubber gloves, films, bottles and tubes made of plastics, cloths made of cellulose or synthetic resins, and components made of wood or natural fibres, whilst forming a hardening mixture which consists of the comminuted waste, an inorganic binding agent and water, characterised in that the waste is broken down into such small pourable particles that the adhesion forces acting on the waste particles in the mixture of cement as inorganic binding agent and water, outweigh the lifting forces ; that the waste particles are homogeneously mixed into the cement-water mixture ; and that the mixture of cement, water and the waste particles is finally hardened to form a concrete block which is capable of being finally disposed of.
