<p>The conditioning device comprises an outer sealed envelope (1) inside which there is arranged a mixture formed of at least one emitter actinide element α with a medium and/or long period such as 237Np, at least one emitter element α having a period shorter than 100 years such as ?242Cm or 244¿Cm and at least one light element such as beryllium or boron capable of generating neutrons by reaction (α, n). The presence of those different elements enables to obtain a destruction in situ of the long or medium period actinide elements by self-fission under the influence of the neutrons produced by reaction of the particles α with the light element.</p> |
