is often condensed before disposal. It packs some 90% of the volume‚ but only 1% of the radioactivity of all radioactive waste. High-level waste is from the burning of uranium fuel in a nuclear reactor (Dixon). It contains the dividing products and trans elements generated in the reactor. It is highly radioactive and hot due to excess heat‚ so it requires shielding and cooling. It has thermal power and can be considered as the ash from burning uranium. The radioactive waste problem is not a new safety

nuclear waste created in the mining process is a major issue for the uranium mining industry as there are few viable options to safely dispose of the toxic waste. I hypothesise that a new technique for the disposal of waste needs to be developed for a long-term solution to the problem of nuclear waste disposal. Waste from the mining process is known as tailings‚ which consists of radioactive slurry of sand and clay like materials.

Finally‚ in spite of often being seen as disconnected from the real world‚ humanities ensure that society remains humane. We tend to forget that Ethics‚ which is a branch of Philosophy‚ provides us with the principles that strictly regulate the use of atomic bombs‚ massive destruction weapons or genetic technology. To conclude‚ claiming that studying humanities is a waste of time is simplistic. It is true

Temperature in Bovine Waste The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effect of temperature in bovine waste on the amount of methane evolved. The hypothesis stated that the bovine waste heated to 48.9oC would produce the most methane. The manipulated variable in the experiment was the temperature of bovine waste. The responding variable was the amount of methane evolved from the waste. The experiment can be applied to real world applications by assisting anaerobic digestion plants in optimizing
