Abstract: The management of radioactive wastes generated from different sources is an alarming situation for the world. Radioactive waste contains radioactive material which is a by-product of nuclear power generation and other applications of nuclear fission or nuclear technology, such as research and medicine. Since these wastes have a lot of hazardous impact to most forms of life and the environment, various steps have been taken in order to protect the environment. In this paper we have discussed the strategy to manage nuclear waste and its disposal according to their properties.
