All practices that are using nuclear and radioactive materials will
produce radioactive wastes.
The nature of radioactive wastes are vary from one radioactive
waste to another radioactive waste in terms of volumes,
chemical and physical compositions and concentration of
radioactivity.
The radioactivity contained in the wastes is hazardous to living
organisms.
The hazardous nature of radioactive wastes to living organisms
requires proper radioactive waste management as prescribed by
Atomic and Energy Licensing Board (AELB).
