    Abstract

    Under Work Package 2 (WP2) of THERAMIN, strategic reviews of thermal treatment technologies and European radioactive waste streams for which thermal treatment could bring benefits have been undertaken. This paper presents the outcomes of an international review of inventory information concerning European wastes potentially suitable for thermal treatment, a review of thermal treatment technologies, and a strategic gap analysis to identify countries where there are significant waste arisings with potential benefits for thermal treatment, but little prospect of these countries developing thermal treatment facilities independently.
