Abstract:
In the current situation of global energy transition, nuclear energy maintains its reputation as a stable power generation technology, without dependence on other resources and without CO2 emissions. However, one of the main problems with its use is the management of the radioactive waste it generates, which has given rise to different international strategies: (i) reprocessing; (ii) storage; and (iii) disposal. Given the interest generated by nuclear energy in recent times and the need to manage the waste generated, this paper presents a global review of the different international nuclear wa

The existence of a large number of abandoned salt caverns in China has posed a great threat to geological safety and environmental protection, and it also wasted enormous underground space resources. To address such problems, comprehensive utilization of these salt caverns has been proposed both currently and in the future, mainly consisting of energy storage and waste disposal. Regarding energy storage in abandoned salt caverns, the storage media, such as gas, oil, compressed air and hydrogen, have been introduced respectively in terms of the current development and future implementation, wit

Abstract This article asks the question whether, in regard to controversial technical decision-making, lay public groups advance different kinds of resistance than credentialed experts. This question is explored via a case-study analysis of one of Canada's major public controversies of the past quarter century—nuclear waste disposal. Having arrived on the policy radar in 1977, nuclear waste remained an internal government/nuclear industry matter until terms of reference for a public inquiry were announced in 1989.

Abstract. Twelve years after the nuclear accident that occurred at the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) in March 2011, radiocesium contamination (with a large dominance of 137Cs, with a 30-year half-life) remains a major concern in various municipalities of north-eastern Japan. The Japanese authorities completed an unprecedented soil decontamination programme in residential and cultivated areas affected by the main radioactive plume (8953 km2). They implemented a complex remediation programme scheme to remediate soils that are fundamental to life on Earth, relying on different de

Abstract:
Cosmic particle flux increases with latitude and altitude and is significantly higher on-board aircraft than at ground level. Furthermore, its intensity depends on solar activity and eruptions. Due to their professional activity, flight crews (FCs) may receive an annual dose of some millisieverts. Therefore, the European directive adopted in 1996 requires the aircraft operators to assess the dose. The effective dose is to be estimated using various experimental and calculation means. In France, it is carried out by the computerized system for flight assessment of exposure to cosmic radiation S

The term “science” refers to “any system of knowledge that is concerned with the physical world and its phenomena and that entails unbiased observations and systematic experimentation”.1 Therefore, laboratory courses are almost universally considered an integral and mandatory part of instruction on science and technology,2 whatever the field or area of specialization. Consequently, undergraduate chemistry courses (and correlated specialties such as pharmaceutical sciences, biochemistry and some branches of engineering) always include practical disciplines, one of which is instrumental analytic

ABSTRACTAn international Workshop was conducted to discuss the present state of modelling of near-field performance of high-level waste repositories, with emphasis on the conceptual and mathematical models for source-term calculations. The Workshop was based on an international survey and review of this topic by the authors. Technical position papers developed by the participants are summarized here. A Proceedings of the Workshop, including the full position papers and the survey and review document, are to be published by Nuclear Energy Agency by the end of 1993.

ABSTRACTClosure of tanks containing high-level radioactive waste (HLW) is a challenging problem involving potentially competing influences from economic, societal, and technological considerations. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is faced with protecting public health and the environment while making economically responsible decisions. Risk (i.e., annual dose) is becoming more prominent as DOE's metric to evaluate the economic consequences of its decisions. Risks are assessed through modeling and calculations commonly known as performance assessment (PA). In the process of tank closure, th
