Repositories for the disposal of radioactive waste generally rely on a multi-barrier system to isolate the waste from the biosphere. This multi-barrier system typically comprises the natural geologic...

A joint NEA-EC workshop entitled “Engineered Barrier Systems (EBS) in the Context of the Entire Safety Case” was organised in Oxford on 25-27 September 2002 and hosted by United Kingdom Nirex Limited...

A workshop entitled “The Handling of Timescales in Assessing Post-closure Safety” of deep geological repositories for radioactive waste was organised by the NEA in April 2002. This report presents th...

L’AEN a organisé en avril 2002 un atelier sur la “Gestion des échelles de temps dans le cadre de l’évaluation de sûreté en phase post-fermeture” de stockages de déchets radioactifs en formation géolo...

The OECD Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) organised a workshop on the “Management of Uncertainty in Safety Cases and the Role of Risk” in Stockholm, Sweden, on 2-4 February 2004. The workshop’s main objec...

All national radioactive waste management authorities recognise today that a robust safety case is essential in developing disposal facilities for radioactive waste. To improve the robustness of the ...

A workshop entitled the “Handling of timescales in assessing post-closure safety” of deep geological repositories for radioactive waste was organised in Paris on 16-18 April 2002 and hosted by the Fr...

Le stockage des déchets radioactifs à haute activité dans des formations géologiques stables caractérisées par des écoulements d’eaux souterraines faibles est l’étape ultime de leur gestion. Les labo...

Final disposal in engineered repositories built deep underground in stable geological formations with low groundwater flow is the ultimate end-point for managing long-lived highly radioactive waste. ...
