Nuclear waste absolutely can be dealt with. There are a variety of methods; for example, burning actinides in a fast reactor.

@AlexanderKingsbury Where has this actually been demonstrated?

All sorts of places. Any fast reactor will burn actinides; for example, the EBR-II X501 experiment. Bur EBR-II was burning actinides since its initial criticality in 1964.

@AlexanderKingsbury I apologize for this being in Japanese, but there was a reply from the original poster.

Well, let's be clear: EBR-II was never intended to be commercialized. It was a research project. The TECHNICAL aspects of fuel reprocessing, actinide burning, etc. are by no means deeply mature technologies, but they have been stymied by politics. We could be doing vastly more to deal with waste than we are now, if there was an actual political appetite to get things done.

@AlexanderKingsbury Sorry for my late reply.

Since it is impossible to have a thorough discussion on social media using smartphones, I am sorry, but this is the end of my response. I would like to add that, even if the government and business community as a whole have poured in budgets like water, as in Japan, the desired results have not been achieved.
