Transport and the dismantling of nuclear facilities

Transport is not a real limiting constraint for the dismantling of nuclear facility if transport is taking into account very early in the dismantling process since numerous packages in various sizes already exist. For instance the TN-Gemini package allows the constitution of B-type packages for high radioactive level wastes, its volume capacity of about 16 m3 can store up to 5.8 tones of wastes, its external dimensions make it look like a sea container. One difficulty would be to find the adequate waste classification for a package containing heterogeneous wastes. (A.C.)
