a Rutgers University researcher has discovered . . . wtf?
Glass vitrification has been on the table for decades. We were talking about this decades ago.

Yeah, they are not specific on what is new. It does say he has six projects underway for different types of glass that may be it, but I am just guessing it may specific to I-129.
watts knew is this guys race against udder researchers on i 129 disposal, such aze transmutation bye neutrons bombardment oar hi powered lasers.
I wish I had seen the INEL vitrification demonstration for politicians and other dignitaries back in the early 90s where excess current smoldered the wood bleachers they were sitting on.

Vitrification at Fernald stopped after they melted throught the containment vessel. It is a little embarrasing that we can't perfect the vitrification process while the French have been using it for a while.
