A method for treating waste material comprising organic components and low and/or intermediate level radioactive agents and a use of a material

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for treating waste material comprising organic components and low and/or intermediate level radioactive agents. The method comprises adding material comprising fibers and kaolin to the waste material in order to form a starting material, and gasifying the starting material at a temperature between 600 and 950° C. to form a gaseous fraction and a solid fraction comprising low and/or intermediate level radioactive agents, gasification residues of the organic components and metakaolin. The present invention also relates to a use of mate-rial comprising fibers and kaolin.
