Claims16
A container for encapsulating radioactive and/or hazardous/toxic waste materials, the container comprising a housing formed by or including a plurality of composite panels, each panel comprising a reinforcing structure at least partially disposed within a matrix material, the matrix material being a composition including a non-biodegradable thermoplastic polymer and a wax or fat, with the container being sealed and containing a monolithic solid having a shape that conforms with the housing and comprising a homogenous mixture of radioactive and/or hazardous/toxic waste encapsulated within an encapsulating composition comprising non-biodegradable thermoplastic polymer and wax,
- wherein the panels of the housing are configured to bond to the monolithic solid located therein,
- and wherein the encapsulating composition is melt mixed with the radioactive and/or hazardous/toxic waste such that the encapsulating composition and the waste are mechanically mixed while the encapsulating composition is in a molten state, thereby encapsulating the waste in the composition.
A container for encapsulating toxic waste material, the container comprising:
- a housing having a reinforcing structure that is at least partially disposed within a matrix material, the matrix material including a non-biodegradable thermoplastic polymer and a wax or fat;
- and
- a monolithic solid that is sealed within the housing, the monolithic solid having a shape that conforms with the housing and comprising a homogenous mixture of toxic waste material that is encapsulated within an encapsulation composition that includes a non-biodegradable thermoplastic polymer and a wax;
- wherein the housing is configured to bond to the monolithic solid located therein.
