摘要：
The Idaho Chemical Processing Plant reprocesses Department of Energy nuclear fuels for recovery of uranium. Acidic high-level liquid wastes are temporarily stored in stainless steel tanks prior to solidification using a fluidized bed calcining process. After solidification, the granular solid waste is stored in near-surface engineered facilities. Approximately 22,000 m**3 of liquid waste has been reduced to 3,000 m**3 of solidified waste during 20 years of routine calcining operations. Research to immobilize the waste at minimum volume for repository disposal is in progress.
