Vitrification turns waste into glass that appears hard, shiny, and rock like. The glass traps radioactive and hazardous waste and keeps them from escaping into the environment. DOE has chosen vitrification to stabilize and contain spilled and leaking radioactive and hazardous chemical waste. Vitrification uses electric power to melt soil and rock; the mass cools into glasslike blocks that will hold materials safely. Keywords: Hanford Reservation, Richland, Washington
