Research has been seeking progress in the management of the waste and risks of Uranium mining. Uranium mining facilities produce tailings that generally are disposed of in near surface impoundments close to the mine. These tailings pose serious environmental and health risks in the form of Randon emission, windblown dust dispersal and leaching of contaminants including heavy metals and arsenic into the water.

This work gave me inspiration to work on such problems in the uranium mining area of Tummalapalle in India.
