A long-term solution for Belgian category A waste. SCK-CEN provides scientific input for the surface disposal facility in Dessel

Description

Short-lived low and intermediate level radioactive waste is generated in nuclear energy production, in industry, medicine and research. This so-called category A waste can be disposed safely on the surface without risks to human health, either today or in the distant future. In Dessel ONDRAF/NIRAS, the Belgian Agency for Radioactive Waste and Enriched Fissile Materials, is preparing for the construction of a surface disposal facility: a long-term solution for Belgian category A waste. SCK-CEN is intensively involved in the scientific basis for the security file for this installation.
