Sorry....I hit post too fast!

 Are you looking for sewage waste treatment plants, or all types of
waste treatment, including nuclear waste, etc? I have found
information but I need to know how to restrict my search.

Hello eas-ga,

I’ve found the materials you’re looking for on safety and hazards
analysis for bulk vitrification and waste treatment plants. The
information I’ve collected is divided between nuclear waste disposal
and industrial waste treatment. Since the nuclear industry is heavily
regulated, I was able to locate a large collection of reports and
papers. Information about industrial waste is not as rigorously
monitored and the resources I found are from a variety of business
publications. I hope that these documents give you what you need.
Please ask for clarification if I can be of further assistance.

High temperature melting processes that vitrify the ash have been
commercially used in Japan and have been demonstrated in the United

associated with ash fines and moisture. Such processing, however, is
energy intensive and costly and has not been adopted in the United
States.

Hello Mike,

I don't know if you posted the clarification in answer to umiat-ga's
query of 12/11/02. My answer includes a wide selection of resources on
nuclear waste treatment plants. I'll be happy to clarify further if
these resources are not clear. If these don't meet your needs please
expand on your request for clarification so I can do more effective
searching for your research targets.
