The best way to treat radioactive waste is to make it into a glass, mixed with cadmium and boron, and then bury it in the Fortress of Solitude where superman can guard it for ever and ever. You may have to remove the Krypton 85. The Marianas trench, wrapped in nickel/niobium-steel drums has been suggested as a repository for radio waste. Another fairly safe place is in a relativey deep mine (1000 feet) in the permafrost in the CDN shield. Shield areas having been siesmically stable for 1.8 billion years, and are a safe bet to stay stable for the 100,000 years it takes the waste to decontaminate. The extremely low corrosion of the permafrost guarantees no degradation of even low grade steel drums, and no need to keep the mine pumped out. The drums need not be stacked far apart, as there is relatively little heating effect from oxidized and glassified radio elements. Stacks of drums of U3O8 barely kick a scintillometer. EC<:-}
