Question

Which of the following phrases best describes the disposal method used for high-level nuclear waste?
concentrate and contain
dilute and disperse
delay and decay
burn and bury <--- ?

Answer 1

A is the right answer;)

Answer 2

its either the first one or the second one because
the last one would cause gases which is not the best way and the second last is also not sufficient

Answer 3

no the answer is A b coz people are afraid of nuclear power and anything radioactive. The more pragmatic answer is to dilute and disperse, but the public would never accept a tiny increase in the back ground radioactivity of the world's oceans. Also, it is really hard to get the valuable isotopes back out of the ocean, but if you concentrate and contain you can always go back and retrieve. :)
