Abstract
The problem of the formation and accumulation of the tritiated heavy a nd light water wastes produced under operation of the various nuclear facilities is considered. It is shown that the tritium contaminated wa stes may have a wide spectrum of isotope concentrations of H:D:T and c orrelation one with other. Reprocessing of these wastes is expensive m atter due to the small tritium concentration respectfully to other hyd rogen isotopes and as well as the small value of separation factor. It requires the development of the versatile technology The description of the full scale experimental facility constructed at PNPI is given.
