Low Level Waste (LLW) - Solid, Debris & Sludge
Items contaminated by low level neutron radiation generated from Nuclear, Industrial and Healthcare industries
Spent Nuclear Fuel (SNF) – Solid
Waste resulting from operation of commercial nuclear reactors
High Level Waste (HLW) – Sludge
Produced as byproduct of nuclear fuel reprocessing and nuclear weapons production
Transuranic Waste (TRU) - Solid, Debris & Sludge
Includes protective gear, tools, residue, debris and other items contaminated with radiation from artificially made elements
