A major focus of this program involves the retrieval, processing, and immobilization of waste into stable, solid waste forms for disposal. Waste Forms Technology and Performance, a report requested by DOE-EM, examines requirements for waste form technology and performance in the cleanup program. The report provides information to DOE-EM to support improvements in methods for processing waste and selecting and fabricating waste forms. Waste forms technology and performance places particular emphasis on processing technologies for high-level radioactive waste, DOE's most expensive and arguably most difficult cleanup challenge. The report's key messages are presented in ten findings and one recommendation."--Publisher's description.10aUnited States. 0aRadioactive waste siteszUnited StatesxEvaluation.9204610 0aRadioactive waste disposalzUnited StatesxEvaluation.9204611 0aRadioactive waste siteszUnited StatesxPlanning.9204612 0aRadioactive waste disposalzUnited StatesxForecasting.92046132 aNational Research Council (U.S.).bNuclear and Radiation Studies Board.  a= C.1 SDU  cGBE2lcc  c107217d107217  00102lcc406TD0898 N279 W2011708CGB9278381aSDUbSDUcGEN3d2025-08-20e2l0oTD898 N279 W 2011p1000365782r2025-08-20 00:00:00tC.1w2025-08-20yGBE
