Description

This paper outlines the radioactive waste management activities in China, mainly concerned with: (1) Strategies and regulations of radioactive waste management; (2) Radioactive waste treatment and conditioning; (3) Radioactive waste disposal, and (4) Decommissioning and decontamination. The China nuclear industry has a history more than 30 years. An integral system of the nuclear fuel cycle has been established. With the operation of various reactors and spent fuel reprocessing plants, a large amount of LLW and ILW and quite a lot of HLW have been generated. (author)
