Many solid wastes are stored or disposed of in the form in which they exist without further treatment ... Other wastes, such as trash, can be treated by methods such as compaction or incineration to reduce the volume and enhance the stability of the waste ... Cement and bitumen are commonly used agents for the solidification of low-level liquid wastes from reactor operations. Immobilization reduces the surface area available for contact of the waste with infiltrating water. 2, record 2, English, - immobilization

L'immobilisation nécessite la mise en œuvre de matières variées qui fixent les déchets dans un bloc compact, le plus souvent directement dans le conteneur de manutention. C'est ce qu'on appelle l'enrobage. Cette matrice constitue la première barrière de confinement du déchet. 3, record 2, French, - blocage
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Le procédé de conditionnement par compactage [...] permet de façon relativement économique d'obtenir des réductions considérables de volume des déchets à traiter et il facilite de ce fait leur blocage ultérieur en béton, produits bitumineux ou résines thermodurcissables. 4, record 2, French, - blocage
