Fusion Energy. In a fusion reaction, two light atomic nuclei fuse together to form heavier ones... The fusion process releases a large amount of energy, which is the energy source of the sun and the stars. Fusion has some key features which make it an attractive option in a future energy mix : the fusion process is inherently safe; waste which will not be a burden for future generations; no emission of greenhouse gases; and the capacity for large scale energy production. 5, record 4, English, - fusion%20power

L'énergie de fusion. La fusion est une autre forme d'énergie nucléaire. Elle cumule les avantages du nucléaire «classique» (densité énergétique, pas de pollution en fonctionnement...) tout en se donnant pour objectifs la diminution voire la suppression de ses inconvénients (pas de déchets à long terme, sûreté intrinsèque, combustibles abondants). [...] Pour être viables, [les] formes d'énergie devront bien évidemment satisfaire à des critères économiques mais aussi prendre en compte des exigences en terme d'environnement, de sûreté de fonctionnement, de disponibilité des ressources. L'énergie de fusion, dont la faisabilité reste à démontrer, répond à l'ensemble de ces exigences. 4, record 4, French, - %C3%A9nergie%20de%20fusion

A schematic diagram of a modular concrete canister disposal (MCCD) facility is shown in Figure 5.5. Modular concrete canister disposal consists of placing individual waste containers in modular concrete structures (i.e. overpacking the individual waste containers in concrete canisters) and disposing of the concrete canisters in shallow low trenches below natural grade. Except for the use of the concrete canisters, the physical details of belowground modular concrete canister disposal closely resemble those of shallow land disposal (in that disposal is below grade with shallow cover) and belowground vaults (in that structured capability is also provided by the facility). 2, record 12, English, - modular%20concrete%20canister%20disposal
