Abstract

See full text

Steel and/or copper spherical capsules are specifically engineered and manufactured for housing uranium waste products. The uranium waste products are placed within the spherical capsules. Human-made cavern(s) and/or substantially lateral wellbore(s) are constructed for receiving the uranium waste containing spherical capsules. The human-made cavern(s) and/or the substantially lateral wellbore(s) are deeply located in specific types of geologic rock formations thousands of feet below the Earth's surface. These uranium waste containing spherical capsules are loaded from the Earth's surface into the human-made cavern(s) and/or into the substantially lateral wellbore(s). The emplaced spherical capsules are surrounded by an immersive protective medium within the given human-made cavern(s) and/or within the substantially lateral wellbore(s). The given human-made cavern(s) and/or the given substantially lateral wellbore(s), with the uranium waste containing spherical capsules, are sealed off.
