Description

The resin mixture containing the radioactive materials will be transported to the radioactive waste disposal facility in Gyeongju after disposal. In this study, radiological safety assessment is conducted using RADTRAN ver 6 code. For using RADTRAN code, parameters such as the specification of the container, dose rate, and surrounding population are required. In the case of disposal of spent resin, zeolite and activated carbon in a waste disposal container of PCHIC, the maximum dose received value was 11.2 mSv. This value dose not reach the maximum dose limit of 50 mSv/year of radiation workers. Doses were below the limit at all routes, objects and sampling locations. Therefore, it was evaluated that radiological safe in transportation for radioactive wastes disposal
