Optimization of radioactive waste storage.
In several countries, low-level radioactive wastes are treated and stored awaiting construction and operation of a final repository. In some cases, interim storage may be extended for decades requiring special attention regarding security issues. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) recommends segregation of wastes that may be exempted from interim storage or ultimate disposal. The pap...
متن کاملSeverity, Probability and Risk of Accidents during Maritime Transport of Radioactive Material
This analysis is based on Lloyd's database concerning sea transport accidents for the 1994–1997period and completes the previous analysis based on 1994 data. It gives an accurate description of theworld fleet and the most severe ship accidents (total losses), as well as the frequencies of accident (inaverage on the 1994–1997 period the frequency of accident for cargo carrying ships ...
متن کاملEvaporation and Storage of Liquid Radioactive Waste
The liquid wastes produced during the processing of radioactive materials at the Savannah River Site were initially stored in large underground tanks constructed of carbon steel. These liquid wastes were generated from the Purex process (for producing plutonium) and the HM process (for producing tritium). The liquid wastes were designated as high-level wastes and lowlevel wastes. As the product...
متن کاملThe Transport of Radioactive Materials
All of these materials are transported on land, sea or in the air in compliance with regulations which are now universally based on the IAEA Regulations for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Materials Ref. [1]. These regulations are designed to ensure adequate protection of transport workers, the public and the environment against the hazards of external radiation, the spread of radioactive con...
متن کاملInput Data for Quantifying Risks Associated with the Transport of Radioactive Material
FOREWORD The worldwide production and use of radioactive material (RAM) and radiation sources in various facets of modern life (energy production, industry, medicine, science, and technology) involves, inevitably, their transport in the public domain and therefore the hazards and the risks associated with RAM transport. In 1959 the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) charged the...
