Quels que soient les types de déchets radioactifs, la sécurité du public, la protection de l’environnement, mais aussi la prévention d’actes de malveillance exigent qu’on gère de facon responsable, a...

Radioactive wastes of all kinds need to be managed responsibly to ensure public safety and protection of the environment, as well as security from malicious intervention, now and in the future. The m...

This database in 2006 included the IFEP List 1.0 and 11 PFEP Lists. More information is available on the webpage of NEA FEP Database.

Assurer la gestion des déchets résultant de la production d’énergie nucléaire dans des conditions sûres, respectueuses de l’environnement et économiques, constitue un défi important qui conditionne l...

This report is aimed at safety assessors of deep geological repositories and at technical specialists concerned with radioactive waste disposal. It is intended to improve communication among interest...

The definition of the chemical and isotopic composition of the groundwater present in argillaceous formations, which are considered as potential host rocks for radioactive waste disposal, is crucial ...

Safety assessments of disposal sites for radioactive waste involve analyses of potential releases of radionuclides from the disposed waste and subsequent transport to the human environment. An import...

Radioaktivt avfall av alla slag måste hanteras på ett ansvarsfullt sätt nu och i framtiden med hänsyn både till människors hälsa och till skyddet av miljön. Avfallet måste också skyddas mot intrång. ...

Integrated performance assessments (IPAs) of radioactive waste repositories deep underground are made at different stages of repository development in order, for example, to allow full-scale developm...

Any significant decisions regarding geologic disposal of radioactive waste will need a comprehensive public review and a thorough involvement of all relevant stakeholders, such as waste generators, w...

In underground repositories for radioactive waste, significant quantities of gases may be generated as a result of several processes. The potential impact of gas generation, accumulation and migratio...

A consensus has been reached among technical experts that high-level radioactive waste can safely be disposed of in deep geological repositories. Safety studies are carried out to evaluate the overal...

Reversibility of decisions is an important consideration in the stepwise decision-making process that is foreseen for engineered geologic disposal of radioactive waste. The implications of favouring ...
