The Retrieval Enclosure, which houses 53,300 cubic meters of waste, is approximately the same length as an aircraft carrier, or equivalent to the size of four football fields.
The real-time radiography units used in the Characterization Facility to X-ray waste are powerful enough to see the filaments of a light bulb that is wrapped in coveralls, inside a plastic liner, inside a steel container.
Waste is transported to different areas of the Treatment Facility by an intricate system of conveyers and drum-handling robots so all waste handling is done remotely.
The three-story Supercompactor glovebox is one of the largest in the U.S. It was tested in Holland and then Nashville, Tennessee before being shipped to Idaho.
Waste shipped from AMWTP travels more than 1,300 miles to its final destination at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in New Mexico.
