The potential for substance abuse involving residual amounts of abusable substances remaining in used skin-worn patches is reduced by the provision of a system and method for combining the abusable substance with a separate anti-abuse substance agent as part of a removal or disposal procedure.

One aspect of the invention provides a system for treating wastestream, particularly a liquid or aqueous radwaste, for safe disposal and, in final processing, converting it into one or both forms including an aqueous form for safe discharge to the environment and a solidified form for safe disposal. Another aspect provides the capacity to employ a step where a specific target element strategy can be set up synchronizing sorbent substance choices and multiple recycle options to remove target substances from wastestream as a part of its Sorption or Powder Sorbent Isotopic Reduction step (II). Other steps cooperate with Sorption step (II) including Oxidation (I) to inactivate or destroy existing chelants, Solid-Liquid separation (III), and Selective Ion Exchange (IV) to deliver the wastestream to final processing. Still further aspects of the invention address the recovery and safe handling of substances such as C-14 (.sup.14C); and also address treating wastestream and removing .sup.14C and water of hydration and forming dry solids for disposal, recycle or other use, such as, for example, granular, pellet or powder waste formation or product; and related special drying means for bringing this about.

Provided is an optical material composition which makes it possible to design an optical material exhibiting a broad range of properties. This optical material composition contains a compound (A) represented by formula (1), 1,2,3,5,6-pentathiepane (b), and if necessary, a compound (B) represented by formula (2). The content of the compound (B) constitutes 0-30 mass % of the total mass of the composition:
