This book was released on 1994 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper presents an analysis of the pbf severe fuel damage scoping test performed at eg&g idaho falls using scdap. the performance of thermal-hydraulic and oxidation models in the code in the context of this experiment is assessed. the main pehnomena predicted by scdap are presented and in general agreement with experiment is good. the most interesting feature of the experiment, the final excursion, is predicted to be consistent with a thermal-hydraulic feed-back resulting from a deterioration in bundle cooling.

Download or read book Nuclear Fuel Waste Management written by Reto Zach and published by Pinawa, Manitoba : Environmental Science Branch, Whiteshell Laboratories. This book was released on 1997 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report highlights many of the key achievements of the biosphere program in support of the development of the disposal concept for Canadian nuclear fuel waste, particularly those achievements related to the development of the BIOTRAC biosphere model and its supporting research. That model was used for the assessment and review of the disposal concept in an environmental impact statement (EIS). The report also treats highlights related to alternative models, external scientific/technical reviews, EIS feedback, and the international BIOMOVS model validation program. Furthermore, it highlights basic aspects of future modelling and research needs in relation to siting a disposal facility, taking into account feedback from the various reviews and the EIS. Appendices include listings of key staff involved, all the scientific/technical reports produced, contracts let to outside agencies, and issues raised during the EIS review.

Download or read book Carbon 14 in Waste Packages for Spent Fuel in a Tuff Repository written by R. A. Van Konynenburg and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carbon-14 is produced naturally by cosmic ray neutrons in the upper atmosphere. It is also produced in nuclear reactors, in amounts much smaller than the global inventory. About one-third of this is released directly to the atmosphere, and the other two-thirds remains in the spent fuel. Both the Environmental Protection Agency and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission have established limits on release of the 14C in spent fuel. This is of particular concern for the proposed repository in tuff, because of the unsaturated conditions and the consequent possibility of gaseous transport of 14C as CO2. Existing measurements and calculations of the chemical forms of the 14C in spent fuel are reviewed. The physical distribution and chemical forms of the 14C are discussed. Available data on the release of nitrogen, and helium are reviewed. Projected 14C behavior in a tuff repository is described. It is concluded that 14C release measurements from spent fuel into moist air at temperatures both above and below the in situ boiling point of water as well as detailed transport calculations for the tuff geological environment will be needed to determine whether the 10CFR60 and 40CFR191 requirements can be met.

Download or read book Geological Repository Systems for Safe Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuels and Radioactive Waste written by Michael J Apted and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-25 with total page 804 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geological Repository Systems for Safe Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuels and Radioactive Waste, Second Edition, critically reviews state-of-the-art technologies and scientific methods relating to the implementation of the most effective approaches to the long-term, safe disposition of nuclear waste, also discussing regulatory developments and social engagement approaches as major themes. Chapters in Part One introduce the topic of geological disposal, providing an overview of near-surface, intermediate depth, and deep borehole disposal, spanning low-, medium- and high-level wastes. Part Two addresses the different types of repository systems – crystalline, clay, and salt, also discussing methods of site surveying and construction. The critical safety issue of engineered barrier systems is the focus of Part Three, with coverage ranging from nuclear waste canisters, to buffer and backfill materials. Lastly, Parts Four and Five focus on safety, security, and acceptability, concentrating on repository performance assessment, then radiation protection, environmental monitoring, and social engagement. Comprehensively revised, updated, and expanded with 25% new material on topics of current importance, this is the standard reference for all nuclear waste management and geological repository professionals and researchers. - Contains 25% more material on topics of current importance in this new, comprehensive edition - Fully updated coverage of both near-surface/intermediate depth, and deep borehole disposal in one convenient volume - Goes beyond the scientific and technical aspects of disposal to include the political, regulatory, and societal issues involved, all from an international perspective
