A method and composition for stabilizing drill cuttings commences by providing precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC). The PCC is dried to a moisture level of about 10% or less. Drying by heat not to exceed 400 F. is preferred to prevent changes in the PCC. The dried PCC is blended with kiln dust to compose a generally uniform admixture. In the admixture, the kiln dust is not to exceed 40%. The admixture is introduced to the drill cuttings to initiate a nucleation reaction within the commixture of drill cuttings and the admixture.

In accordance with the present invention, provided is a method for producing a solidifying material for radioactive waste disposal, the method including a first step (S100) of pulverizing radioactive concrete waste and separating aggregates and paste and a second step (S200) of using the paste to produce a solidifying raw material, wherein the second step (S200) includes a calcination treatment step (S210) of calcining a mixture obtained by mixing an additional material with the paste; a sintering treatment step (S220) of sintering the mixture in a sintering furnace after the calcination treatment step (S210); and a rapid-cooling treatment step (S230) of rapid-cooling the mixture after the sintering treatment step (S220) to produce a clinker.

Systems and methods of the present invention include a method for the treatment of drilling wastes and coal combustion residues, comprising combining at least a first drilling waste with coal combustion residues to form a paste, combining at least a second drilling waste with coal combustion residues to form a compactable fill, and placing the paste and the compactable fill in a landfill. Other embodiments include a method of treating drilling wastes and coal combustion residues, comprising combining at least one drilling waste with a coal combustion residue to form a paste. Further embodiments include containing the paste within at least one geotextile container. Still further embodiments include placing the geotextile container in a landfill.
