  • 1. Gg. Noell GmbH, Wuerzburg, Germany

Description

With regard to the final storaging of metallic LLW from decommissioning projects, packaging into box type containers shows a variety of advantages compared to the raditionally used drum types. The design of a module container system presented herein is in line with German and IAEA requirements for transportation and final storaging into a mine. Special regard was given to the waste activity and packaging process and results in a decision chart to facilitate the selection of the appropriate container type according to the job specific necessities. 3 references, 7 figures
