Receival of radioactive waste in 2016 in center for radioactive waste technology

According to the decree Head of BATAN No. 14 year 2013, one of Center for Radioactive Waste Technology Centre (RWTC) task is to carry out management of the radioactive waste. Receiving of radioactive waste is part of the management of radioactive waste; therefore, it should be in accordance with applicable regulations. This activity should follow current procedure, administratively and technically. Thus, it is necessary to evaluate the activities of receiving radioactive waste in order to control and monitor them so that its management can be safe for workers, waste management installations, community, and environment. This activity was carried out by preparing all documents of the receival of radioactive waste, and then followed by classification and evaluation of the results of receiving procedures as per waste's type. During the period of 2016, RWTC received about 95260.5 liters of liquid radioactive waste, 1975 liters of semi-liquid radioactive waste, 147 drums of 100 liter and 186 pieces HEPA Filters of contaminated solid radioactive waste, and 164 pieces of disused sealed radioactive sources. All waste received during 2016 has fulfilled the requirements of technical and administrative, and stored safely and securely in IS 1, IS 2, and liquid waste storage tank located in Building 50.
