These recommendations apply to the planning, construction, operation and post-operational management of salt caverns used for the underground disposal of hazardous wastes. In particular, geotechnical site-specific safety verification, as required by the government's technical regulations on wastes (TA-Abfall) under the section “Underground Disposal”, is required.

Read MoreThe disposal of waste in leached-out caverns on an industrial scale is not common ei-ther. Many solution mined caverns have been used for dumping salt and chemical (sodi-um) waste, drilling spoil etc. for a number of years. However, those sites did not operate as do present disposal facilities.

Read MoreDisposal of low-level waste is straightforward and can be undertaken safely almost anywhere. Storage of used fuel is normally under water for at least five years and then often in dry storage. Deep geological disposal is widely agreed to be the best solution for final disposal of the most radioactive waste produced.
