PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for treating tritium as waste from nuclear reactor operations.SOLUTION: The method includes the steps of: treating a tritiated radioactive effluent with an adsorbent material made of cellulose filaments or microcrystalline cellulose that is non-water soluble or has negligible solubility, so as to incorporate tritium in a molecule of the cellulose filaments or microcrystalline cellulose; separating the tritiated adsorbent material from the treated effluent; and treating the tritium as low- and medium-level radioactivity wastes. The method includes incorporating cellulose filaments or microcrystalline cellulose in the tritiated effluent until the content thereof reaches 0.6-3.4 gram, preferably 1.1-1.6 gram, per liter of the tritiated radioactive effluent.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Disclosed herein is a system that addresses all of the current challenges described above by combining three existing technologies and an improved nuclear RNA delivery system to generate a first-in-class cellular therapy that can secrete a cancer specific suicide gene for the treatment of several cancers. Also disclosed herein is a 'Trojan-Horse' like genetic construct aimed at engineering a chemo-sensitive dominant clone for adaptive therapy in cancers, such as leukemia. In some embodiments, cells, such as cancer cells from a subject, are engineered with suicide genes to promote a bystander effect in neighboring cancer cells once returned to the subject. In some embodiments, these cells are further engineered to be clonally dominant, e.g. by deleting or mutating tumor suppressor genes in the cells, overexpressing oncogenes, or any combination thereof. Once the engineered cells have reached a target clonal dominance, the suicide gene can be induced, thereby promoting the bystander effect.

An active thermal switch assembly according to aspects described herein may include a hot plate, a cold plate, and an actuator. The actuator may cause the hot plate and the cold plate to come into mechanical contact, thereby achieving a closed state for the active thermal switch and facilitating conductive heat transfer between the two plates. Convective/radiative heat transfer may have little effect as compared to conductive heat transfer (e.g., as may be the case in environments having reduced or no atmospheric pressure), such that operating the actuator to introduce a gap between the hot plate and the cold plate (thus achieving an "open" state) substantially reduces conductive heat transfer between the hot and cold plates accordingly. Controlling the separation distance between the hot plate and cold plate may also be used as a method to modulate the thermal radiation between the two surfaces.
