Reply #8: This defies the laws of physics. Gassification is at the molecular level.

The instability of atomic isotopes causes radioactivity. That process is at the atomic level. The only thing that can make a radioactive substance environmentally "safe" (non-radioactive) is by the passage of (a lot of) time, as these substances transmute into lead.

This is just a fancy way of describing a long-existing process for encasing nuclear waste in glass for long-term storage -- the ionization process is probably superior to the old melting process, but by no means does it "neutralize" radioactive materials and by no means is it impossible to reprocess this waste back into nuclear materials.
