Abstract
A container for the consolidation of waste materials including radioactive containing waste, and a method of consolidating such materials. The container comprises an outer cylinder and an inner cylinder comprising internal compression plates that are designed to resist collapse during consolidation, and therefore control the size of the consolidated container to a predictable shape and dimension. The container is sufficient to hold a variety of materials, including hazardous, toxic, or radioactive waste, and the container is configured to hold such waste without releasing it to the environment.
