Difference between Beryllium and Radioactive waste

Beryllium vs. Radioactive waste

Beryllium is a chemical element with symbol Be and atomic number 4. Radioactive waste is waste that contains radioactive material.

Beryllium and Radioactive waste have 25 things in common (in Unionpedia): Alpha decay, Alpha particle, Americium, Chemical element, Cosmic ray, Gamma ray, Half-life, Ionizing radiation, ITER, Liquid–liquid extraction, Neutron emission, Nuclear fuel, Nuclear reactor, Nuclear transmutation, Nuclear weapon, Plutonium, Plutonium-239, Polonium, Potassium, Radionuclide, Radium, Tonne, Tritium, Uranium dioxide, Utah.

Alpha decay

Alpha decay or α-decay is a type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus) and thereby transforms or 'decays' into an atom with a mass number that is reduced by four and an atomic number that is reduced by two.

Liquid–liquid extraction

Liquid–liquid extraction (LLE), also known as solvent extraction and partitioning, is a method to separate compounds or metal complexes, based on their relative solubilities in two different immiscible liquids, usually water (polar) and an organic solvent (non-polar).
