How long until radioactive waste is safe?

Answers

Answered by janeolivefeb

Answer:

1,000 years

Explanation:

Transuranic wastes, sometimes called TRU, account for most of the radioactive hazard remaining in high-level waste after 1,000 years. Radioactive isotopes eventually decay, or disintegrate, to harmless materials. Some isotopes decay in hours or even minutes, but others decay very slowly.
