    I've been wondering about this for along time. When will something come along to make Nuclear safe, here we are:), kinda:(. Baby steps.

    It's no good for the likes of Chernobyl or Fuku (Now even worse than previously thought, Reactor 3 DID in fact completely meltdown), it's more specific, it eats up ISA, an acid that forms when this stuff,
    In Europe, intermediate-level waste (ILW) generally refers to material that contains high amounts of radioactivity that requires shielding, but not cooling. It includes resins, chemical sludge, metal nuclear fuel cladding and contaminated materials from reactor decommissioning, and is often disposed of by being solidified in cement or bitumen before being buried in underground vaults.
    Eventually reaches and reacts with Groundwater, making it more soluble and helping it escape underground Bunkers.

    Though they should have this stuff in better bunkers but I guess they can't be arsed spending the money.

    This is promising. Hurry on and find something to make safe the bad stuff now.
