[+] but if you've got a point source, which you need in order to add the gelling agent, why not just pump it into a tank ? |
|
| |
I would guess, because no tank(s) big enough are readily
available. Damn logistics. |
|
| |
This is an outstandingly cunning idea! You'd need a fairly
stable gel, though. |
|
| |
One other thought - would it not have been possible to
pump the waste out into a tanker? |
|
| |
One final thought - it probably doesn't matter, except for
psychological reasons. I doubt that that amount of waste,
dispersed by a few days of currents, would be detectable.
But maybe I'm wrong. |

[MB] so far it's resulting in radioactive fish. |

I suggest agar. That's coming from almost zero expertise. |
|
| |
Hmm. Agar. Let's see... moderately expensive - check.
Sufficiently fragile to be broken easily by wave action -
check. A nutritious snack for turtles and fish - check. Yep -
ticks all the boxes. |

Hey wait -- that's the form to have me committed. |

How about "Committed thinkers." as a tagline? |

Dope the gelling agent with boron, xenon or some such neutron absorber. Not affiliated with Pampers, Depends, or anything with added wings... |
|
| |
Sodium Silicate, maybe? They've already got some on-site from when they plugged the crack in that cable trench. |
