Abstract

ABSTRACTResults of research on the use of microwave energy for several waste remediation applications are discussed. Studies include; processing of simulated nuclear waste glass frits, the destruction/vitrification of electronic circuitry from commercial and defense applications, the decomposition of organic compounds and the possible use of microwave energy in off-gassing operations during the ashing of electronic circuitry. Results of leach tests on simulated nuclear waste glass are presented as well as results from preliminary tests on organic wastes.
