Book Deep Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste

Download or read book Deep Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste written by W. R. Alexander and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-07-29 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste presents a critical review of designing, siting, constructing and demonstrating the safety and environmental impact of deep repositories for radioactive wastes. It is structured to provide a broad perspective of this multi-faceted, multi-disciplinary topic: providing enough detail for a non-specialist to understand the fundamental principles involved and with extensive references to sources of more detailed information. Emphasis is very much on "deep geological disposal – at least some tens of metres below land surface and, in many cases, many hundred of metres deep. Additionally, only radioactive wastes are considered directly – even though such wastes often contain also significant chemotoxic or otherwise hazardous components. Many of the principles involved are generally applicable to other repository options (e.g. near-surface or on-surface disposal) and, indeed, to other types of hazardous waste. - Presents a current critical review in designing, siting, constructing and demonsrating the safety and environmental impact of deep repositories for radwaste - Addresses the fundamental principles of radioactive waste with up-to-date examples and real-world case studies - Written for a multi-disciplinary audience, with an appropriate level of detail to allow a non-specialist to understand

Book Geological Repositories

Download or read book Geological Repositories written by and published by OECD Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various long-term radioactive waste management options have been considered in order to protect humans and the environment both now and in the future. Most experts worldwide agree that disposal in engineered facilities, or repositories, located in appropriate formations deep underground, provides a suitable option. Engineered geological disposal is seen as a radioactive waste management end-point providing security and safety in a sustainable manner that does not necessarily require monitoring, maintenance and institutional control. Internationally, this option is regarded to be technically feasible, acceptable from an ethical and environmental viewpoint, as well as acceptable from an international legal perspective. The Stockholm International Conference on Geological Repositories: Political and Technical Progress brought together over 200 high-level decision makers and other interested stakeholders from the national, regional and local levels, regulatory bodies and radioactive waste management implementing organisations. In addition to providing a forum for the exchange of the most up-to-date information in the field, it also served to strengthen international co-operation on radioactive waste management and disposal issues.

Book Regulating the Long term Safety of Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste

Download or read book Regulating the Long term Safety of Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste written by and published by OECD. This book was released on 2008 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulating the long-term safety of geological disposal of radioactive waste is a key part of making progress on the radioactive waste management issue. A survey of member countries has shown that differences exist both in the protection criteria being applied and in the methods for demonstrating compliance, reflecting historical and cultural differences between countries which in turn result in a diversity of decision-making approaches and frameworks. This conference proceedings presents discussions focused on diversity in regulatory processes; the basis and tools for assuring long-term protection; ethical responsibilities of one generation to later generations and how these can be discharged; and adapting regulatory processes to the long time frames involved in implementing geological disposal. These proceedings include a summary of the viewpoints expressed as well as the 22 papers presented at the workshop.--Publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication contains the papers presented at the Fourth European Conference on the Management and Disposal of Radioactive Waste, held in Luxembourg from 25 to 29 March 1996. The main areas addressed were:- The general aspects of waste disposal and the safety of geological disposal systems;- Activities on the construction and operation of underground facilities in geological media considered as suitable for investigation as candidate material for disposal.In addition overview papers were given on topics including:- Studies of management systems;- Treatment of radioactive waste with a view to volume reduction;- Characterization and qualification of waste forms, packages and their environment, quality assurance and quality control;- Research to back up the development of underground repositories for eventual disposal (rock mechanics, radionuclide migration in the geosphere, natural analogues, etc);- Methods of evaluating the safety of disposal systems;- Construction and/or operation of underground research facilities open to the European Union joint activities to develop and demonstrate emplacement techniques and to validate site and design criteria of deep geological repositories.

Book Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste in Deep Clay Formations

Download or read book Geological Disposal of Radioactive Waste in Deep Clay Formations written by X.L. Li and published by Geological Society of London Special Publications. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of research into the geological disposal of radioactive waste in Belgium, the HADES underground research laboratory (URL) was constructed in a clay formation in the early 1980s. This was the world's first purpose-built URL in a deep clay formation. Over the past four decades, the HADES URL has played an important role in the research, development and demonstration (RD&D) of geological disposal. It enabled the in situ characterization of the clay host rock, it allowed experiments to be performed under realistic geological conditions and it demonstrated the feasibility of constructing, operating and closing underground repositories. This volume presents several key contributions of the HADES URL to both Belgian and international research into geological disposal. It not only compiles some important RD&D results, but also illustrates the essential role URLs such as the HADES URL have played in developing concepts for the geological disposal of radioactive waste.

Book Geological Disposal of Spent Fuel and High Level and Alpha Bearing Wastes

Book excerpt: Proceedings of a symposium organized jointly with CEC and OECD/NEA, Antwerp, Belgium, 19-23 October 1992. The purpose of the symposium was to review the progress being made in national and international programmes towards the demonstration of safe disposal of radioactive wastes. The technical presentations addressed disposal in all the principal geological media currently under consideration: clay, crystalline rock, salt and volcanic tuff. The programmes described ranged from national screening surveys on a broad, regional scale to detailed site specific investigations in underground research laboratories.
