Abstract:
In the process of natural uranium purification and conversion, low-level uranium-containing radioactive wastes will be produced. On the basis of introducing the characteristics of wastes from natural uranium purification and conversion and their treatment, we review the main strategies and good practices of minimization of wastes from natural uranium purification and conversion, analyze the main problems in minimization of wastes from natural uranium purification and conversion in China, and propose corresponding improvement measures, which provides a reference for the implementation and management of minimization of wastes from natural uranium purification and conversion.
