The course should give the general over view of radioactive waste management to the young specialists, just entering the field. It intends also to provide an entrance to some of the facilities, dedicated to radioactive waste management, that means UJV waste management centre and Laboratories of Fuel Cycle chemistry department, supporting radioactive waste disposal in […]
The 31st course on radioactive waste management, organized by CIEMAT is now open for registrations. The course provides current knowledge of the radioactive waste management, and the Spanish radioactive waste plan. For more detailed information, click here. CONTENT: - Generation, characterization and classification of radioactive waste. - Radioactive waste in Nuclear Power Plants and Radioactive […]
Muon tomography is a non-destructive technique to image objects from a safe distance. It utilizes the ever-present cosmic radiation and thus does not require additional radiation sources. Due to the highly penetrating nature of muons, it is possible to image the insides of large objects, ranging from nuclear waste drums to pyramids and volcanoes. As […]
OECD Nuclear Energy Agency is pleased to announce the fifth edition of the course on “Thermodynamic data collection and assessment” organised by the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency within the Thermochemical Database (TDB) Project. The fifth edition will take place as a 2-session webinar (3 hours per session) on the 18th and 19th of November 2021. […]
This intensive unique seven day course will give a comprehensive overview of different aspects involved in the management of radioactive waste. The course modules will handle operational radioactive waste management during collection, characterization, conditioning, transport and (interim) storage. Course topics will focus on international best practices and regulations, national and international state-of-the-art. The course benefits […]
In the European Union several nuclear facilities are closed or may stop their operation in the coming decade. The need to proceed with decommissioning creates a potential for new industrial activities. The availability of qualified personnel to support the emerging decommissioning market is an asset for the European industry. The present JRC-Ispra Summer School is […]
Part of a webinar series organized in respect to the technical work packages of the Characterization of conditioned radioactive waste (CHANCE) project. Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) is an innovative technique to characterize outgassing of radioactive waste. During this webinar, a general introduction to CRDS will be given, as well as the recent developments with CHANCE. […]
Radioactive waste toxicity requires a safety management in conditions which ensure the minimum risk to people and the environment, well within the established limits. The course provides current knowledge of the radioactive waste management, and the Spanish radioactive waste plan. This thirtieth course updates the knowledge of radioactive waste management, through the experience and knowledge […]
