Analysis of data field of radioactive waste management for development of decommissioning waste management program

  • 1. Kyung Hee University, Yongin (Korea, Republic of)

Description

The proportions of the wastes by waste categorization were reported to be 4.2% for intermediate level waste (ILW), 28.7% for low level waste (LLW), and 67.1% for very low level waste (VLLW). The half of VLLW is estimated to be clearance waste after the delay and decay process. Article 9 of Radioactive Waste Control Act in Korea requires collection, investigation, analysis, and management for radioactive waste control. The countries with nuclear power plant (NPP) decommissioning experience, including the USA, Germany etc. constructed management system for decommissioning radioactive wastes and implemented. However, there is no such waste management system for NPP decommissioning in Korea. Final objective of this study is to develop a waste management system for NPP decommissioning. As a beginning step for the objective, we analyzed data field of radioactive waste management program
