The glass solidification technology has been studied by many researchers for decades to handle the trouble of high-level liquid waste (HLLW). However, the widely used joule-heated ceramic melter technology also has disadvantages such as complicated processes, easy deposition of heavy metals, and low thermal efficiency. To deal with these problems, we proposed a new glass solidification device based on ultra-high power laser heating to handle HLLW. HLLW was mixed with borosilicate glass, and melting, clarifying, and annealing processes were carr...
