Description
Description | The Hanford Glassification Facility is a project to convert radioactive waste stored in underground tanks into glass by mixing the waste with glass flakes and melting them together. This process aims to neutralize 20 to 25 million gallons of low-activity radioactive waste at the Hanford nuclear site in Washington. The facility has faced long delays, with construction starting in 2002 and originally scheduled to go online in 2009, but now planned to begin operations on October 15, 2025. The project is part of a larger cleanup effort at Hanford, which involves multiple plants and aims to glassify all wastes by 2052, though internal targets have shifted to 2069. |
