Lambert J.D.B., Kadyrzhanov K.K. Safety Related Issues of Spent Nuclear Fuel Storage

Springer Science & Business Media, 9 mai 2007 - 359 p. - ISBN: 1402059019, ISBN: 9781402059018At a NATO-sponsored workshop in Almaty in September 2005, specialists from the IAEA, Brazil, France, Kazakhstan, Poland, Russia, USA and Uzbekistan discussed safety-related issues of storing spent nuclear fuel. Fifteen papers dealt with aluminium-clad fuel discharged from research reactors worldwide, five papers were concerned with stainless steel-clad fuel from fast reactors, and two were devoted to Zircaloy-clad fuel from commercial light-water reactors.International Status and PerspectivesRegulatory Approach for Managing Radioactive Waster in the Republic of KazakhstanSpent Fuel Management in PolandAn Overview of Spent Fuel Storage at Commercial Reactors in the United StatesManaging Spent Nuclear Fuel at the Idaho National LaboratoryAssessment of Environmental Impact of Reactor Facilities in KazakhstanDesign and Manufacture of Fuel Assemblies for Russian Research ReactorsStrategy for Handling Spent BN350 Cesium Traps in the Republic of KazakhstanProblems of Nuclear and Radiation Safety of Casks with Spent Fuel during LongTerm Dry StorageTrial of Storage Container Technology for Research Reactor Spent Nuclear FuelInterim Storage and LongTerm Disposal of Research Reactor Spent Fuel in the United StatesManaging Spent Fuel in Wet Storage at the Savannah River SiteCorrosion of Aluminium Alloy SAV1 and Austenitic Stainless Steels 12Cr18Ni10Ti and 18Cr16Ni11Mo3Core Structural Materials for WWRK and B.Corrosion of FastReactor Claddings by Physical and Chemical Interaction with Fuel and Fission ProductsCorrosion of Research Reactor Aluminum Clad Spent Fuel in Wet StorageInfluence of Neutron Irradiation on Mechanical and Dimensional Stability of Irradiated StainlessSteels and its Possible Impact on Spent Fuel StorageAccount and Control of Nuclear Materials at the WWRSM Reactor in the Institute of Nuclear Physics TashkentActivities of the Kharkov Institute Related to the Problem of Spent Nuclear Fuel ManagementUnderstanding and Managing the Aging of Spent Fuel and Facility Components in Wet StoragePackage and Facilities Development Including Safety Aspects and Durability Assessment ProgramTechnical Issues of Wet and Dry Storage Facilities for Spent Nuclear FuelDegradation in Mechanical Properties of Stainless Steels C012Cr18Ni10Ti and C008Cr16Ni11Mo3Materials for Hexagonal Ducts of Spent Fuel Asse.List of AuthorsWorkshop Photographs
