The NWMO knows there are better options coming for dealing with nuclear waste. As an organization they are too focused on old outdated concepts.
Burying their problem is not an acceptable option. NWMO needs to show more innovation! They have billions to spend and their best solution is to bury this waste? Really?!?!
They can do better and we need to demand it from them.
SAFE, EXTRA LONG-LIFE NUCLEAR BATTERIES COULD SOON BE A REALITY.
September 23, 2020 - Researchers are developing a new battery powered by lab-grown gems made from reformed nuclear waste.
ARE RADIOACTIVE DIAMOND BATTERIES A CURE FOR NUCLEAR WASTE?
August 31, 2020 - Unlike the batteries in most modern electronics, which generate electricity from chemical reactions, the Bristol battery collects particles spit out by radioactive diamonds that can be made from reformed nuclear waste.
DESTROYING NUCLEAR WASTE TO CREATE CLEAN ENERGY? IT CAN BE DONE
Nov 16, 2018 World Economic Forum - Excerpt: Transmutation of nuclear waste: the ADS process has been proven to transmute long-term nuclear waste, harmful for 240,000 years or more, into short-term radioactivity waste of less than 500 years toxicity. The technology would solve the intractable problem of very long-term radioactive waste storage.
