Testing Facility for High-Level Radioactive Waste
Experiments on Underground Disposal Advancing in Finland
Experiments on underground disposal proceed at a high-level waste testing facility using actual metal containers, in Olkiluoto, Finland. What should be done about the final disposal of high-level radioactive waste, which is produced from spent fuel from nuclear power generation and continues to emit radiation for more than 10,000 years? In the environmentally advanced Nordic countries, construction of underground repositories to minimize the burden on future generations is steadily progressing.
