Waste conditioning is an important step in minimising and controlling the migration of radionuclides from disposed wastes into the environment. However, when nuclear materials are present, consideration of nuclear safeguards is also needed. Safeguards is the set of tools and techniques used to ensure nuclear materials are only used for peaceful purposes. As part of a safeguards system, nuclear...

Safety, security and safeguards aspects regarding the geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste and spent fuel are usually addressed separately. Thus, apparently different methods and techniques exist for each of the three “S’s”. However, by identifying both synergies in overlapping methods or techniques and differences in the requirements with respect to safety, security and...

Oral Presentation
The Cooling Pond of Chornobyl NPP (hereinafter referred to as CP) was formed by constructing an embankment on the flood plain of the Prypiat River, its area made about 22.9 km2; its water volume making 151 million m3 was calculated for cooling Chornobyl NPP four units in mode of electric power generation.
When CP was operated the water level was maintained up to the design level which made...

Decommissioning
Oral Presentation
The WWR-S research reactor from National Institute for R&D in Physics and Nuclear Engineering Horia Hulubei (IFIN-HH), Magurele site, Romania, is currently in the year 2 of the phase 3 of the decommissioning project. Big components are cut in small parts to reduce the size for a proper packing and temporary disposal. Segregation is used to separate different type of materials depending on...

The application of safeguards measures by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) involves analytical measurements of samples taken during inspections and requires the development and advancement of analytical techniques. For quality control purposes, the IAEA has expressed the need to acquire reference materials for particle analysis methods applied in safeguards.
To this purpose, a...
