Question

Explain the classification of radioactive wastes by radioactivity concentration with the help of graph.

Answer 1

Eventually all radioactive waste decays into non-radioactive elements. The more radioactive an isotope is, the faster it decays. Radioactive waste is typically classified as either low-level (LLW), intermediate-level (ILW), or high-level (HLW), dependent, primarily, on its level of radioactivity.

Answer 2

Radioactivity is the spontaneous emission of radiation in the form of particles or high energy photons resulting from a nuclear reaction
