My understanding is that the IFR would greatly reduce both the quantity of waste and the length of time the waste would have to be stored (since the ultimate waste is short lived fission products that would only need to be securely stored for a few hundred years).
However, this http://thebulletin.org/web-edition/op-eds/reprocessing-isnt-the-answer" seems to suggest that even the Integral Fast Reactor (IFR) model does not present a solution to radioactive waste.
Is the author correct?
