The management of radioactive waste includes mobilisation, processing, packaging, storage, transport and final disposal. Research in the Integrated Waste Management theme of TRANSCEND focuses on underpinning science and engineering in areas of relevance to hazard reduction and decommissioning and the objectives are to: (1) develop new materials for effluent decontamination; (2) demonstrate predictive modelling of sludge/slurry removal, underpinned by experimental data; (3) transform understanding of radiation-driven processes in nuclear waste sludges; and (4) provide underpinning studies to develop innovative processes and wasteform materials. This paper gives overviews of the 16 research projects that will be done over the next 3 years in this theme. (authors)
