A safety assessment of radioactive waste repositories is a mandatory requirement process because there are possible radiological hazards owing to radionuclide migration from radioactive waste to the biosphere. For a reliable safety assessment, it is important to establish a parameter database that reflects the site-specific characteristics of the ...

Disposal as the End Point of Radioactive Waste Management
We present a brief overview of the current state of radioactive (or nuclear) waste (RW) management (RWM), focusing on its end point and international advice provided by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). RW, defined as waste that contains, or is contaminated with, radionuclides at activity concentrations greater than clearance levels set by

Geological evaluation of the Slovenian territory for radioactive waste disposal
Due to the growing need for a final disposal of low and intermediate level (LILW) radioactive waste, the final solution for the short-lived LILW is one of the key issue of radioactive waste management in Slovenia at the moment.

Site Characterization for LILW Long-Term Storage Facility and Repository
Site selection and site characterisation for long-term storage facility or repository for low and intermediate level radioactive waste (LILW) is often more complex than a technical solution for the construction itself. Complexity is recognized in solving sociopolitical problems more often than in engineering criteria.

Novel dissolved organic 14C analyses method applied in a case study at a LILW waste repository
AbstractA routine chemical procedure was developed at the Ede Hertelendi Laboratory of Environmental Studies (HEKAL), in Debrecen which can measure the dissolved organic radiocarbon content of groundwater as well as the inorganic and total fraction. The typical background of this non-purgeable dissolved organic radiocarbon preparation is 0.73 ± 0.14 ...
