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 کاملReliability studies of a high-power proton accelerator for accelerator-driven system applications for nuclear waste transmutation
The main effort of the present study is to analyze the availability and reliability of a high-performance linac (linear accelerator) conceived for Accelerator-Driven Systems (ADS) purpose and to suggest recommendations, in order both to meet the high operability goals and to satisfy the safety requirements dictated by the reactor system. Reliability Block Diagrams (RBD) approach has been consid...
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...
