This Lunch & Learn session will be presented by Manuel MARTIN-RAMOS (JRC). Manuel Martín Ramos (Madrid, 1970) has 25 years of experience in nuclear safety, management of spent fuel and decommissioning both in the industry and research areas. Since 2012 he serves in the Euratom Coordination Unit in the JRC Headquarters in Brussels. Manuel was […]
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 […]
This Lunch & Learn session will be presented by Delphine Pellegrini (IRSN), Nadja Zeleznik (EIMV) and Frédéric Bernier (FANC). Click here to view the recording of this Lunch & Learn session.
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. […]
EC directive 2011/70/Euratom acknowledges that disposal is the end-point for radioactive waste and spent fuel, which implies that all member states must prepare a credible disposal strategy. The chosen disposal strategy can be implementation of a national disposal facility but also participation in a multinational repository (MNR). Only the first option is currently being implemented, […]

The Implementing Geological Disposal of radioactive waste Technology Platform (IGD-TP) is dedicated to initiating and carrying out European strategic initiatives to facilitate the stepwise implementation of safe, deep geological disposal of spent fuel, high-level waste and other long-lived radioactive waste. It aims to address the remaining scientific, technological and social challenges, and support European waste management programmes. […]
Welcome to join the free PREDIS online webinars and discussion forums on technical topics related to innovation and technology needs in pre-disposal radioactive waste management. This webinar will focus on meeting the challenges of conditioning (and accepting) radioactive liquid organic wastes through stabilisation and solidification with geopolymers. To register, click here.
Welcome to join the free PREDIS online webinars and discussion forums on technical topics related to innovation and technology needs in pre-disposal radioactive waste management. This webinar will focus on how to provide long-term solutions for the management of radioactive solid organic wastes through thermal treatments and immobilisation with conventional or novel binders. To register, […]
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 […]
Knowledge Management (KM) is quite a recent concept, having come to prominence during 1990s, however become an essential part of Management in all Nuclear Organizations. Since nuclear knowledge is unique, without diligence in managing such knowledge, substantial portion of it could be lost due to personnel retirements or could be disused as a result of […]
Welcome to join the free PREDIS online webinars and discussion forums on technical topics related to innovation and technology needs in pre-disposal radioactive waste management. This webinar will focus on getting the most from optimised characterisation, efficient decontamination and advanced conditioning of both ferrous and more reactive metallic wastes. To register, click here.
Learn more about NEA’s IGSC or the Integration Group for the Safety Case. IGSC is the main technical advisory body to the Radioactive Waste Management Committee (RWMC) on the deep geological disposal, particularly for long-lived and high-level radioactive waste. It was established in 2000 in recognition of the need to foster full integration of all […]
Pursuant to the Site Selection Act of 2017, on Monday, September 28th, the BGE has published its interim report on identified sub-areas which can be expected to have a favourable overall geological situation for the safe disposal of high-level radioactive waste. The three host rock types salt rock, clay stone an crystalline rock have been […]
Welcome to join this “Lunch & Learn” session to hear about the new EU project PREDIS, including 47 partners from 17 countries developing innovations for more efficient and safe treatment of LILW streams. Hear about the cooperation planned between PREDIS and EURAD on issues such as waste acceptance criteria, strategic research agendas and knowledge management. […]
For this event, all PhD students contributing to EURAD are invited to present themselves and their research to the wider EURAD community. Besides PhD students, young and senior professionals associated with EURAD are expected to join this event. This event is an opportunity for EURAD PhD students to get to know each other and to […]
The aim of this course is to give a comprehensive overview of the activities of EURAD, as well as an overview of the state-of-the-art in Radioactive Waste Management. The target audience are primarily PhD students, post-docs and young professionals in the field of RWM, but the training course is open to all EURAD partners as […]
HITEC deals with thermal impact and GAS concerns gas transfer, both in the context of geological disposal of radioactive waste. This school allowed the attendees to improve their understanding of heat transfers, water and gas migration, stress and strain evolution in a repository. The school addressed both experimental and numerical investigations, at small (lab) and […]
