About Us Careers in Defence Consultations Contacts ... Radioactive Waste Invitation for Expressions of Interest from Industry Interim Land Storage of Radioactive waste from decommissioned nuclear submarines Summary of Requirements The MoD has recently announced its intention to proceed with the second phase of an investigation into the storage of Intermediate Level Radioactive Waste. It is now seeking the provision of services from a Private Sector Provider under a potential PPP/PFI arrangement, to undertake the Transport and Storage of Radioactive Waste, and disposal arrangements for De-fuelled, Decommissioned Nuclear Submarines. The current overall requirement is to provide facility for the interim land storage of Intermediate Level Radioactive Waste from a total of not less than twenty-seven Submarines until at least 2050, with the capability of holding consignments of radioactive waste for a period to allow optimum natural decay. The packaging of radioactive waste should also be addressed as part of any storage solution. Present arrangements for the storage of laid-up submarines is to de-fuel and prepare them for long-term storage afloat. There are currently seven De-commissioned Submarines stored at Rosyth and four at Devonport. One submarine at each site is waiting to be de-fuelled. All future submarines are due to be de-fuelled at Devonport.

Joint Convention on the safety of radioactive waste management and on the safety of spent fuel management Introduction What is radioactive waste? How is it managed? What are the current challenges? For complete answers to these and other questions in the European Union context, refer to the very extensive Web site (in six languages) on radioactive waste management in the EU . But first, read the following paragraphs for a better understanding of the role and activities of the European Commission and DG-Energy and Transport (DG-TREN) in particular, both within and outside the European Union. First, let's go back to the beginning. In the 1950s, when the EURATOM Treaty was drawn up, nobody was very concerned about the wastes produced by the operation of nuclear power plants. Certainly no one foresaw that the management of radioactive waste would play such a crucial role in the future of the nuclear sector or in the energy / environment debate. Consequently, there is only a very limited reference to this subject in the Treaty.

Such waste may only be disposed of via flushing sinks connected to approved radioactive drains provided for this purpose. Ensure that the activity per flush is below the dilution concentration limit for each radionuclide. Organic solvents are not to be disposed of via flushing sinks. Solid Radioactive Waste Solid waste must be sealed in a red plastic bag and placed in a cardboard radioactive waste box. Waste must be segregated by radionuclide and waste type unless otherwise permitted. For example, the following waste should be packaged in separate boxes radionuclide animal carcasses (will be stored frozen and incinerated) syringes in a sharps container (will be incinerated) scintillation cocktail contained in counting tubes (may be incinerated) An estimate of the total activity of each radionuclide must be written in the details section of each box. Only units of activity (Bq, Ci and there derivatives) are acceptable.

Visit the Home Page for a list of Recent Additions to the site. Energy for Ever: Technological Challenges of Sustainable Growth Academy Symposium, November 1997 Radioactive Waste Management and Disposal Dr Adam Jostsons Director, Materials Division, ANSTO ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION Radioactive waste arises from all stages of the fuel cycle for the generation of electricity by nuclear fission. The term radioactive waste is applied to any radioactive material for which no subsequent use is planned, and whose nature and radioactivity level are such that its immediate dispersion into the biosphere would fail to meet established safety standards. Radioactive waste also arises from the utilisation of radioisotopes in research, industry, and medicine including from the processing of raw materials that contain naturally occurring radionuclides eg, mineral sands and rare earths. Radioactive wastes can be solid, liquid or gaseous. The importance of safe management of radioactive waste for the protection of human health and the environment has long been recognised and considerable experience has been gained globally in this field. The international consensus on the approaches and methodologies for safe waste management, including disposal, has been synthesised by the IAEA to produce a harmonised set of Radioactive Waste Safety Standards (RADWASS). An International Convention on the Safety of Radioactive Waste and Spent Fuel Management has been developed by the IAEA on the basis of RADWASS.

48. Radioactive Waste Subject radioactive waste. I have read that radioactive waste can be treated prior to disposal to reduce its lethality or halflife. http://www.soest.hawaii.edu/GG/ASK/radwaste.html

Reply to ASK-AN-EARTH-SCIENTIST Subject: Radioactive waste I have read that radioactive waste can be "treated" prior to disposal to reduce its lethality or half-life. What is this treatment process, how much does it reduce the lethality or half-life of the waste in question and is it "theoretically" possible to completely neutralize radioactive isotopes so they are harmless right from a reactor? the radiation it emits the parent or daughter elements, which themselves can be toxic for "chemical" reasons. NO . But it is possible to minimize their toxicity using a combination of the techniques listed above. Unfortunately, reactors usually produce a complex array of radioactive nuclides and what treatments work for some may not work for others in the mixture. This means the material will require potentially lenghty and expensive chemical purification steps. Because present policy in the US and around the world does not require in most cases the best-possible reduction of toxicity, particularly in cases where it would be expensive, the industries creating and/or using these materials typically take more minimal aproaches to waste containment and treatment.

I slept well, jet-lag notwithstanding. Which is more than the people living in Bagdad will have managed. A few observations: - if the US and Britain don't know the fate of Saddistic after all the destruction of his various palaces, how will they know when to stop bombing the blazes out of Bagdad, and leave the Iraqi people to start cleaning up the messes of their cities and lives? - if Iraq had any credible weapons of mass destruction (WMD's), why haven't they attempted to use at least some of them? An obvious answer is that they don't have much in the way of operable WMD's. But equally obvious is that one side has vast quantities of WMD's and are using them against Iraqi people right now. - how is the bombing of Bagdad that we witnessed on those incredible live pictures from Bagdad last night substantially different from the terror that other western nations have suffered in the past few years? And do we really expect the Iraqis living in Bagdad to love us for what has just been done to them?

The Objective, the Issues, the Instruments, the Tools, the Fora, and the Output Tue Sep 11 13:19:58 2001 Radioactive Waste Management Policy in Malaysia Even though Malaysia has no plans to embark on a nuclear power programme, and our nuclear activities are limited to the applications of such technologies in the industrial, medical, agricultural, and environmental sectors, the country, nevertheless, has a long history of tin mining activities which account for a vast majority of the radioactive waste management problems in the country. These radioactive wastes are mainly associated with naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM's) extracted from the ground by the tin-mining activities, or technologically-enhanced naturally occurring radioactive materials (TENORM's) derived as a by-product of oil exploration and extraction industries. Certain minerals, such as monazite, illminite, zircon, which contain natural radioactive elements such as uranium, thorium and radium, coexist with tin ore or cassiterite in the ground. In the process of mineral extraction, these radioactive elements become more concentrated and need to be properly managed. Increasing environmental awareness and sensitivity has made the proper management of these radioactive wastes a matter of priority not only in Malaysia, but also globally. Chapter 22 of Agenda 21, agreed to at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, called for appropriate treatment, storage and handling facilities, as well as additional legal and administrative control mechanisms, to be developed and made available for these radioactive wastes.

Publications >> The Radioactive Waste Inventory A national inventory of radioactive waste has been compiled on a regular basis since the early 1980s. Initially, the inventory was an annual exercise, but the frequency has decreased due to improvements in the data. The latest edition (published on 22 October 1999) shows a snapshot in time on 1 April 1998. It describes all stocks of waste held in the UK at that date, together with predictions of wastes arising in the future. In addition, low-level waste disposals are itemised for each of the previous four years. The 1998 inventory consists of eight reports. Two main reports: The 1998 United Kingdom Radioactive Waste Inventory A Summary Report and six detailed reports provide information of radioactive waste streams from: BNFL (Calder Hall, Capenhurst, Chapelcross, Sellafield and Springfields) BNFL (Magnox Electric Sites) Nuclear Electric and Scottish Nuclear UKAEA Ministry of Defence Nycomed Amersham, Urenco and Minor Producers. Each detailed report contains data on waste volumes, the physical components of the wastes and their chemical properties, storage conditions, current and planned waste treatment and conditioning processes, radioactivities and radionuclide concentrations for each waste stream. It also contains a summation of waste volumes for each site. The data cover waste in stock on 1 April 1998 and projected arisings after this date. In total the reports rum to over 3000 pages. The inventory took two years to plan, compile, assess and quality-assure data on the 1000 different waste streams. Information came from an official survey covering the major producers of radioactive waste in the UK. These include Nycomed Amersham, BNFL, the Ministry of Defence, British Energy, UKAEA and URENCO. Figures from minor producers such as educational and research establishments, health authorities and industrial companies are also included.
