This is the amount of waste that would be left over after all stable materials had been recycled. This subject, like everything else in life generates a lot of questions. I'm sure you have a few about the topic. Hopefully, we'll find answers to most if not all of your questions. Think of how much garbage and trash your family collects in a day, or in a week.
Industries also have trash and garbage as a result of doing or making something.
The leftovers of an industrial process are called wastes. Like all industries, nuclear powerplants produce waste. One of the main concerns about nuclear powerplants is what to do with the waste. And as such this brings us to our second question. The problem with nuclear powerplants is not so much the amount of waste they make, which is quite small compared to that produced by other industries.
