[Occupational radiation exposures during maintenance activities at nuclear power plants].
Occupational exposures at nuclear power plants occur mostly during maintenance activities rather than during routine reactor operation. In this paper, statistical summaries of occupational exposures during routine maintenance activities for the years 1982-84 at nuclear power plants in Japan are presented, including comparison of the exposure levels by reactor type and by plant age. Average annu...
متن کاملQuality assurance at nuclear power plants: Basing programmes on performance
quality assurance programme is often incorrectly interpreted as only a regulatory demand and/or paperwork, with no effective impact in the overall performance of the nuclear project. Over the past decade, however, the nuclear industry has experienced a loss of public confidence stemming from real shortcomings in performance. This has led to dramatic changes in the perception of quality and how ...

متن کاملNew Generation Nuclear Power Plants
− The radioactivity measurement techniques being developed within the EMRP “MetroFission” Joint Research Project (JRP) [1], are aimed at performing on-site activity measurements, by the development of a portable Triple to Double Coincidence Ratio (TDCR) system along with associated digital electronics. The TDCR standardisation method for beta-emitting radionuclides (e.g. H and Pu) produces an e...
متن کاملMulti-Objective Optimization of Testing and Maintenance in Nuclear Power Plants Considering Component Ageing
The study presented herein is aimed towards improvement of nuclear power plant safety by utilizing the probabilistic safety assessment methodology. A new time-dependent unavailability model of ageing safety equipment within the nuclear industry is proposed. Equipment ageing along with effects of corrective maintenance and preventive maintenance are modelled as an integral part of the new time-d...
