Question

radio active waste is the most dangerous among all the forms of waste. make a report on it.

Answer 1

Radioactive waste is waste that contains radioactive material. Radioactive waste is usually a by-product of nuclear powergeneration and other applications of nuclear fission or nuclear technology, such as research and medicine. Radioactive waste is hazardous to all forms of life and the environment, and is regulated by government agencies in order to protect human health and the environment.On average, more than 2,000 metric tons of spent fuel is generated every year from nuclear power plants [17]. This amount only adds up to the global long-term waste storage problem.

In the United States alone, 90,000 metric tons of waste awaits safe disposal. To get a better picture, this amount would fill a football field about 20 meters deep [18].

A report from the International Atomic Energy Agency estimates the total amount of waste produced globally to be over 228,300 metric tons [19].

All this waste just accumulates every year in many locations around the world and like a ticking bomb endangers unaware communities.

Answer 2

Report on Radio active waste:

The radioactive waste is generated from radioactive elements. These radioactive elements may be found in nuclear energy industry or research institution or Medicine institution.

These radioactive elements are very harmful for body and exposure to this may cause certain disease like cancer, paralysis or respiratory disorder. Some of the examples for radioactive elements are uranium isotopes, caesium isotopes and iodine isotopes.

The Radioactive substance decays for a long time. These elements have to keep in isolated condition, where it decays naturally without effecting human mind. Environmental health agencies are under taking care in order to protect the human health.
