ABSTRACT:
This invention discloses a system and method for the disposal of solid waste that contains radioactive material. Radioactive solid wastes generated as scales during oil and gas production operations are collected and placed in a central processing chamber. High-temperature and high-pressure water containing large amounts of dissolve salts is produced from a geothermal subterranean formation and introduced into the solid processing chamber to dissolve the radioactive solid waste. The solid radioactive waste is subjected to a grinding process to microemulsion particle size and treated in an acid.
