'''Saltcrete''' is a mixture of [[cement]] with [[salt]]s and [[brine]], usually originating from liquid waste treatment plants. Its role is to immobilize [[hazardous waste]] and in some cases [[low level waste|lower-level]] [[radioactive waste]] in the form of solid material. It is a form of [[mixed waste]]. [http://www.vote.org/flats/]
Saltcrete is being replaced by '''saltstone''', which is less permeable and leachable. Saltstone is a mixture of the [[salt cake]] (mostly [[sodium nitrate]] and other salts) with [[concrete]] and [[fly ash]].
