À toutes les phases du cycle du combustible nucléaire, mais aussi lorsque l’on utilise des substances radioactives dans l’industrie, la recherche et en médecine, on produit des déchets radioactifs. L...

Radioactive waste is associated with all phases of the nuclear fuel cycle as well as the use of radioactive materials in medicine, research and industry. For the most hazardous and long-lived waste, ...

A “safety case” is the synthesis of evidence, analyses and arguments that quantify and substantiate a claim that a geological repository for radioactive waste will be safe after closure and beyond th...

Geological settings selected as potential host formations for the deep geological disposal of radioactive waste are chosen for, among other assets, their long-term stability and buffering capacity ag...

This document outlines the preliminary programme and pre-registration steps to participate in the third AMIGO Workshop on Approaches and Challenges for the Use of Geological Information in the Safety...

The report is aimed at interested parties that already have some detailed background knowledge of safety assessment methodologies and safety cases, including safety assessment practitioners and regul...

Most experts worldwide agree that radioactive waste disposal in engineered facilities, or repositories, located in appropriate formations deep underground, provide a suitable waste management option ...

When preparing the safety case for a deep geological repository of radioactive waste, the integration of wide-ranging information from multidisciplinary sources is a complex task. This has provided t...
