Description

Generated wastes volume is estimated as 5,600 m3 on the original design base at Rokkasho Reprocessing Plant (RRP) along with an annual operation. These wastes shall be treated in the waste treatment facility in order to reduce and stabilize waste. As a result, the volume of waste can be decreased up to about 40% of the amount of generation. JNFL is also planning to construct a facility to cope with final conditioning of waste and the most suitable disposal packages. The volume of all low-level wastes generated at RRP can be decreased to 1/5 or less. (author)
