Spent Nuclear Waste - Official Mekanism Wiki
Spent Nuclear Waste is one of the final products of the Fissile Reaction. It is created as a by-product from producing Polonium Pellets and Plutonium Pellets. It is radioactive and the only known way to dispose of it is to dump it into Radioactive Waste Barrels, where it will slowly decay.

r/feedthebeast on Reddit: [Mekanism] Disposing of Spent Nuclear Waste?
August 16, 2020 -
I'm currently trying to figure out what to do with the "Spent Nuclear Waste" from turning Polonium into Polonium Pellets for the MekaSuits using the Pressurized Reaction Chamber. It ends up producing spent nuclear waste and I'm not sure what to do with it.
Using ATM6.

I just made a 3000 block long pipe out into an ocean where I pipe it into waste barrels, which I break when they fill up. While it does get rid of them permanently, your gonna need a hazmat suit / radiation shielding upgrades on the mekasuit. Also the area you dump it will have so much radiation its practically useless.

This is an old post, but Ultimate Trash Cans from the Trash Cans mod and take gas inputs even though they don't specify they do. I hope this helps you or someone else!
How do I get this spent nuclear waste out of these interface without radiating my base? Sep 17, 2025

Nuclear Waste is a byproduct of running the Fission Reactor, it is Radioactive and if it is released it will contaminate the environment. A Small amount is stored in the Reactor itself but should be piped into other blocks for storage or use.

As a byproduct of burning Fissile Fuel, fission reactors produce Nuclear Waste which can be converted in Polonium Pellets, Plutonium Pellets or Antimatter Pellets. The first two produce Spent Nuclear Waste as a byproduct (at a ratio of 1:10), while Antimatter production is a completely clean ...

Learning about these new fissile fuel generators and stuff. First time using melanism 10. Just thought I’d throw this out there since people on the forums I’ve been looking at seem to be struggling with this. Some people are making giant tubes to abandoned areas to dump waste.
Guys just make ultimate pressurized tubes and store it in the tube.. The ultimate pressurized tube can store 16,000,000 mB. That’s 250x more than a nuclear waste barrel. Now if you break the tube or barrel you’ll release radiation. Just add another tube.

People generally don't use the Waste Barrels to store Spent Nuclear Fuel, they use them to remove it safely (rather than intentionally causing a massive nuclear disaster). Each Waste Barrel disposes of its contents at a rate of 1 mb per minute (60 seconds, 1200 ticks).

I just make hundreds of waste barrels connect them together, (you don’t need pipes if you stack them than configure with the wrench they will light up and become one bigger barrel) then it should just decompose
