Community and industry come together to workshop radioactive waste management strategies

The nuclear sector has in recent years been placing increasing attention on the need to better understand variations between cost estimates for the decommissioning of nuclear power plants, as well as...

This report is based on a study carried out by the NEA Decommissioning Cost Estimation Group (DCEG) on decommissioning cost elements, estimation practices and reporting requirements. Its findings ind...

Tout projet de gestion de déchets radioactifs à long terme durera vraisemblablement des décennies, voire des siècles. Il nécessitera un site et influera de bien de manières sur la communauté environn...

Cet ouvrage, à l’intention d’un large public, présente une synthèse de la situation du déclassement et du démantèlement des installations nucléaires ainsi que des questions connexes dans les pays mem...

The Expert Group on a Holistic Process for Decision Making on Decommissioning and Management of Complex Sites (HDCS) continues to make progress with its forthcoming report to describe the scope of co...

Experience from decommissioning projects suggests that the decommissioning of nuclear power plants could be made easier if this aspect received greater consideration at the design stage and during op...

Una delle preoccupazioni più diffuse in tema di produzione di energia elettrica da fonte nucleare è che la disattivazione degli impianti nucleari - ovvero il loro smantellamento fino allo stato final...

This status report on Decommissioning Funding: Ethics, Implementation, Uncertainties is based on a review of recent literature and materials presented at NEA meetings in 2003 and 2004, and particular...

Considerable international experience gained over the last 20 years demonstrates that nuclear facilities can be safely dismantled and decommissioned once a decision is made to cease operations and pe...

One concern commonly expressed about electricity production from nuclear power is that the decommissioning (i.e.dismantling to a desirable end state) of the redundant radioactive facilities presents ...

This report of the NEA Co-operative Programme on Decommissioning (CPD) presents the generic results obtained by a CPD Task Group on Decontamination and Dismantling (D&D) of Concrete Structures that u...

This overview of decontamination techniques is based on the results of the previously mentioned questionnaire, which was received, reviewed and summarised for this report by the Task Group. The infor...

L’expérience internationale considérable accumulée au cours des 20 dernières années nous montre que les installations nucléaires peuvent être démantelées dans des conditions de sûreté, puis déclassée...

L’enlèvement des matières irradiées et plus particulièrement du combustible à l'issue de l'arrêt définitif d'une installation élimine la source principale de risque radiologique, le risque de critici...

Il presente rapporto, avente finalità di ampia divulgazione, contiene una sintetica panoramica delle problematiche associate alla disattivazione e allo smantellamento delle intallazioni nucleari ne P...

NEA’s Working Party on the Technical, Environmental, and Safety Aspects of Decommissioning and Legacy Management gathered for a workshop on  29 November to 1 December 2022 in Paris.
