GNS - Transport system and handling practices for the transport of low and intermediate level wastes
Description
During the past years GNS has developed and installed several new transport systems for the transport of low and intermediate level wastes. There are: 1. ''Open-all'' containers for transportation of drums, containers and Type B (U) casks; 2. 20' container qualified as IP II, for the transport of scrap and miscellaneous waste; 3. Tank containers for the transport of liquids. These containers are already being used internationally and have proven functionability. This transport system and the handling practices are described in detail in the report. (author)
