Why Deep Isolation Offers Nuclear Waste Resources

In our latest blog post, Jessica Chow, Deep Isolation Technical Marketing Analyst and a nuclear engineering major, recounts how nuclear waste disposal and public perceptions around nuclear waste weren't really addressed during her formal education. A passion for helping others better understand these complex and important issues motivated her to curate a new Deep Isolation resource: About Nuclear Waste.

We hope you'll take a look and share your feedback or additional questions with Jessica@DeepIsolation.com.

Agreement with Dominion Engineering, Inc. Opens up Latin America Nuclear Waste Market

There are seven nuclear power reactors operating in Latin America, located in Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico, but, as is mostly the case worldwide, there's nowhere to permanently dispose of an estimated 7,000 metric tons of spent nuclear fuel.

The nuclear energy infrastructure and waste management considerations in this region make it an ideal candidate for Deep Isolation’s deep borehole technology so we're pleased to announce a new collaboration to serve this market.

On May 4 Deep Isolation and Dominion Engineering, Inc., a global leader in specialized nuclear fuel services and technology, announced plans to develop a comprehensive strategy for the management of spent fuel and high-level waste, including handling, transport, and final disposal in deep borehole repositories.
