Technology Development Strategy for Volume Reduction & Recycling of the Soil from Off site Decontamination Work

Towards the final disposal of the removed soil outside Fukushima Pref., MOE will promote recycling of the soil after volume reduction as much as possible, which consequently would lead to reduce the volume of soil for the final disposal
After clarifying the objectives and priority of technology development and volume reduction & recycling, basic technology development is planned to be completed within 10 years, then move onto a phase of treatment
On the premise of securing safety, MOE will try to realize the recycling in the possible field, building public understandings for the safety
Based on technology development and prospect of recycling in the future, MOE would propose some options for structure and necessary dimension of the final disposal
