Methods of safe handling of liquid radioactive waste (LRW) containing tritium are presented in this paper. The first method consists of decreasing LRW specific radioactive activity by separating solid insoluble radioactive components having different fractional compositions without using mechanical filters and chemical treatment. The second method is transition of organic LRW into a solid state.
