Disposal in engineered facilities built in stable, deep geological formations is the reference solution for permanently isolating long-lived radioactive waste from the human biosphere. This managemen...

Cost estimation for the decommissioning of nuclear facilities can vary considerably in format, content and practice both within and across countries. These differences may have legitimate reasons but...

The most widely adopted solution for the definitive management of high-level radioactive waste involves its emplacement in deep geological repositories whose safety should not depend on the active pr...

Alla långsiktiga projekt för hantering av radioaktivt avfall pågår sannolikt i årtionden eller århundraden. Projektet kräver en fysisk plats och det kommer att påverka det omgivande samhället på en r...

En ansenlig internationell erfarenhet som inhämtats under de senaste 20 åren visar att kärntekniska anläggningar kan rivas och avvecklas på ett säkert sätt när ett beslut väl fattats att avsluta drif...

Les programmes nationaux de gestion des déchets radioactifs se trouvent à des phases diverses dans la recherche de sites d’implantation d’installations et se fondent sur des approches techniques dist...

À toutes les phases du cycle du combustible nucléaire, mais aussi lorsque l’on utilise des substances radioactives dans l’industrie, la recherche et en médecine, on produit des déchets radioactifs. L...

Radioactive waste is associated with all phases of the nuclear fuel cycle as well as the use of radioactive materials in medicine, research and industry. For the most hazardous and long-lived waste, ...

Disposal of high-level radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel in engineered facilities, or repositories, located deep underground in suitable geological formations is being developed worldwide as t...

L’expérience internationale considérable accumulée au cours des 20 dernières années nous montre que les installations nucléaires peuvent être démantelées dans des conditions de sûreté, puis déclassée...

La thématique de ce 7e atelier du Forum sur la confiance des parties prenantes (FSC) concernait la mise en œuvre du programme français de gestion des déchets de haute activité et de moyenne activité ...

This 7th Forum on Stakeholder Confidence (FSC) workshop focused on the territorial implementation of France’s high-level and long-lived intermediate-level waste management programme. Sessions address...

National radioactive waste management programmes are in various phases of siting facilities and rely on distinct technical approaches for different categories of waste. In all cases, it is necessary ...

Alors que les programmes nationaux de stockage géologique progressent vers leur mise en œuvre, le concept d’« optimisation » et les exigences réglementaires associées suscitent une attention accrue. ...

As national geological disposal programmes progress towards implementation, the concept of “optimisation” and related requirements are receiving increased attention. Exchanges within NEA expert group...

As part of its activities, the Regulators’ Forum of the NEA Radioactive Waste Management Committee has been examining the regulatory criteria for the long-term performance of geological disposal. In ...
