Nuclear Data Evaluation for Accelerator- Based Transmutation of Radioactive Waste
The necessity of high-energy nuclear data libraries for accelerator-based transmutation research is argued. After a brief sketch of the bigll-energy nuclear reaction chain in an incineration system, the most important data. needs for accelerator-based transmutation are categorized by reaction type and nlaterial. The present status of the collection of experimental data for high energies is inve...
متن کاملProbabilistic risk analysis for a high-level radioactive waste repository.
A probabilistic risk analysis (PRA) for a high-level radioactive waste repository is very important since it gives an estimate of its health impacts, allowing comparisons to be made with the health impacts of competing technologies. However, it is extremely difficult to develop a credible PRA for a specific repository site because of large uncertainties in future climate, hydrology, geological ...
متن کاملDisposal of low-level radioactive waste.
The Act encouraged states to form regional compacts for the disposal of low-level radioactive waste (LLRW). The Act contained both positive and negative incentives. The positive incentive was a provision that allowed compacts to restrict access to their regional LLRW disposal facility to member states beginning in 1993, thus limiting the amount of waste disposed of in any state hosting a region...
متن کاملCheng/Cerbone-Page 1 PROSPECT OF NUCLEAR WASTE TRANSMUTATION AND POWER PRODUCTION IN FUSION REACTORS
A small tokamak-based fusion reactor can be attractive for actinide waste transmutation. Equilibrium concentrations of transuranium isotopes were estimated in a molten-salt based fusion transmutation reactor. Nuclear performance parameters were derived for two types of fusion-driven transmutation reactors: Pu-assisted and minor actinidesonly systems. The minor actinide-only burning system appea...
متن کاملMolecular Epidemiology and Surveillance Program in Iran: Present Status and Future Prospect
Background and aims: The food-borne pathogens appear to be a reemerging and endless problem inthe human community all over the world. Hence, all the outbreaks should be constantly monitored forpandemic strains and new mutant genotypes. The main purpose behind the molecular typing methodsis the comparison of bacterial isolates to obtain genomic relatedness regarding epidemiolog...
