Answer 2

Depends upon the type of waste.  At this time I am only aware of containment and long term storage as options.

One form of containment system which I saw a demonstration of was called synrock.  Basically its an encapsulation system  which mixes waste with a sand like material and then heats and squeezes the mix into  glass like hockey pucks.   The encapsulation is to prevent the material from leaching
