Radioactive waste container (A hard-walled container designed for the safe deposit, collection and storage of radioactive materials including containers previously used for those materials (e.g., scintillation vials). It is made from metal and/or hard plastic and typically designed with an internal radiation shield [e.g., a lead (Pb) liner]. It typically has a lid with radiation shielding properties that allows temporary and final closure options. It is identified with a radioactive symbol on its labelling and sent to a radioactive waste treatment plant for disposal when filled to the recommended level.)
