Transport logistics for the transport of radioactive waste form public authorities to the final repository Konrad. Presentation of a simulation model

The final repository Konrad will start operation in 2019. The licensed disposal amount of 303.000 m3 is planned with 10.000 m3 per year. The waste delivery can be performed by road or rail transport. The infrastructure boundary conditions have to be considered with the transport planning. The transport logistics concept is presented using the examples of the interim storage facilities Lubmin and Karlsruhe. The planned disposal regime for low- and intermediate-level wastes requires a comprehensive logistics concept that provides a delivery according to the schedule. The experience values from transport simulation experiments will be considered in the frame of the planning software EPALKO development as control function and optimization parameters.
