A study on the acceptance criteria of radioactive waste form

It is essential to accept well solidified and packaged waste forms for the safety during the operational and post operational phase in the repository, and for this, waste the acceptance criterion is necessary for the distinction of the well solidified and packaged waste form. The objective of this report is to provide the preliminary acceptance criteria to help the later establishment of final acceptance criteria. The following factors were considered for establishing the preliminary waste acceptance criteria. 1) Matrix and waste form characteristics 2) the type of repository and its characteristics 3) establishment procedure of acceptance criteria and its technical background From this study, a qualitative preliminary criterion including the radionuclide contents, surface dose, surface contamination and so on was established.
