DEVICE FOR RECLAMATION OF A RADIOACTIVE HIGH LEVEL WASTE FOR ENERGY CONSUMPTION
A device for reclamation of radioactive high level wastes (HLW) for energy consumption comprises a containment shell that comprises a first closing/opening shell lid having an opening to push the radioactive material in one direction and to dispose the radioactive material out of a second closing/opening shell lid. At least one interchangeable buffer plate having a temperature resistant side is in contact with and bolted to the at least one side of the containment shell. A bimetallic band or cable is being curved and having a higher and a lower linear coefficient of thermal expansion. A gear assembly is adapted to be mounted on the support and meshing with the bimetallic band or cable to control the speed of the device. The device has a potential to consume many materials deemed as waste from various stockpiles and/or from power plants as high level radioactive substances to power itself and subsequently create power from sources of energy deemed otherwise unattainable. Also it has the ability to power select devices being used at power plants that would necessitate motor-driven capabilities even in conjunction with a vehicle, for example, turbines, fuel cells, propellers and/or tires
