Project Name | High-Entropy Glass-Ceramics for Nuclear Waste Immobilization |
Project Detail | Johns Hopkins University will develop a new class of materials called high-entropy glass-ceramics that could store more nuclear waste by percent weight than industry-standard glasses. The novel materials could significantly lower the infrastructure cost of nuclear waste disposal deep underground by reducing the volume of deep earth that must be excavated for every kilogram of waste. |
