Section: claims

1. A system for storing hazardous waste material, the system comprising:a container configured to sealingly contain hazardous waste material;a first cell, the first cell comprising a filling station configured to transfer hazardous waste material into the container;a second cell, the second cell comprising an evacuation system configured to evacuate the container that contains the hazardous waste material, the second cell being isolated from the first cell, the first cell held at a first pressure and the second cell held at a second pressure, the first pressure being less than the second pressure; andan interlock, the interlock coupling the first cell to the second cell;wherein the first cell, second cell and interlock are configured to transfer the container that contains the hazardous waste material from the first cell to the second cell while maintaining at least one seal between the first cell and the second cell. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the filling station includes:a blender configured to mix the hazardous waste material with additives;a hopper coupled to the blender; anda fill nozzle coupled to the hopper and configured to removably and sealingly couple to the container and transfer the hazardous waste material and additive mixture into the container. 3. The system claim 1, wherein the hazardous waste material includes calcined material. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the first cell does not exchange air with the second cell while hazardous material is being transferred into the container by the filling station. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the filling station includes:an off-gas sub-system having a vacuum nozzle configured to removably and sealingly couple to the container. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the second cell comprises a baking and sealing station. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein the baking and sealing station is configured to seal a filling port of the container. 8. The system of claim 6, wherein the baking and sealing station includes an orbital welder. 9. The system of claim 6, wherein the baking and sealing station includes a welding station, a bake-out furnace and the evacuation system, the evacuation system having a vacuum nozzle configured to removably and sealingly couple to the container. 10. The system of claim 1 further comprising:a third cell, the third cell being isolated from the first cell and the second cell, the second cell and third cell configured to transfer the container from the second cell to the third cell. 11. The system of claim 10, wherein the third cell comprises a hot isostatic pressing station. 12. The system of claim 10, wherein the third cell is held at a third pressure, the third pressure being greater than the second pressure. 13. The system of claim 10 further comprising:a fourth cell, the fourth cell being isolated from the first cell, the second cell and the third cell, the third cell and fourth cell configured to allow the container to be transferred from the third cell to the fourth cell. 14. The system of claim 13, wherein the fourth cell comprises a cooling and packing station. 15. The system of claim 13, wherein the fourth cell is held at a fourth pressure, the fourth pressure being greater than the third pressure. 16. The system of claim 1, wherein the interlock includes decontamination equipment. 17. The system of claim 1, further comprising:a recycle line configured to add secondary hazardous waste into the container, and the secondary hazardous waste includes an evacuation filter used during evacuation of previous containers. 18. The system of claim 17, wherein the secondary hazardous waste includes mercury evacuated from previous containers.
