ABSTRACT:
A method of melting treatment of radioactive miscellaneous solid wastes containing therein an electrically conductive substance and other waste components. This method comprises charging the radioactive miscellaneous solid wastes into a cold crucible induction melting furnace provided with a high-frequency coil; supplying a high-frequency current to the high-frequency coil of the melting furnace to thereby heat and melt the electrically conductive substance, e.g. a metal, in the miscellaneous solid wastes; indirectly heating the other components in the miscellaneous solid wasted by utilizing the electrically conductive substance as a starting source of heating and melting; and placing the whole of the radioactive miscellaneous solid wastes into a molten state.
