Without the waste disposal problem?

The waste disposal problem would be the same. However reprocessing of fuel makes the volumes of fuel significantly less. But this is true for conventional Uranium fueled plants as well.

So the spent fuel is radioactive, but since you can reprocess it, and reuse it, there will be less in the end and it will be able to be used for longer? Will it be less or more radioactive?
