A new way to identify salts in nuclear waste melters could help improve clean-up technology, including at the Hanford Site, ...

From affordability to success rate, here are a few facts about egg freezing and embryo freezing that yo should know about.

Cryopreservation is a specific method of biostasis using very cold temperatures, and cryonics is the controversial ...

Figure 1: Containerless vitrification and warming of embryos followed by normal development. Hamster two-cell embryos were vitrified using this method and the results compared with those with ...

Vitrification, the study says, is the process by which material is burned at a high heat and cooled rapidly, turning it into glass or a glaze. "The preservation of ancient brain remains is an ...

The Department of Energy is unlikely to meet a deadline set by a federal court for the next step to prepare the Hanford site’s vitrification plant to treat radioactive waste for disposal.

Workers at the Hanford nuclear site were ordered to take cover on Friday after a large holding tank with ammonia vapor was discovered to be leaking near the vitrification plant in the 200 East Area.

WSU researchers developed a sensor system to detect salts during nuclear waste vitrification, enhancing safety and efficiency ...
