Difference between Radioactive waste and Subcritical reactor

Radioactive waste vs. Subcritical reactor

Radioactive waste is waste that contains radioactive material. A subcritical reactor is a nuclear fission reactor concept that produces fission without achieving criticality.

Isotopes of neptunium

Neptunium (93Np) is usually considered an artificial element, although trace quantities are found in nature, so thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given.

Light-water reactor

The light-water reactor (LWR) is a type of thermal-neutron reactor that uses normal water, as opposed to heavy water, as both its coolant and neutron moderator – furthermore a solid form of fissile elements is used as fuel.
