AbstractAbstract
[en] This paper deals with the problems presented during the comminnioning of the solid waste processing system of Angra 1. Based on the obtained results, some modifications have been introduced in order to get a better final product quality. Such modifications are described and the results compared with those originally obtained. The items related to the preliminary acceptance criteria for radioactive wastes, established by the Brazilian National Nuclear Energy Commission, are discussed, taking into account the final disposal and transportation problems. Considering the final product quality generated in Angra 1, the utility (FURNAS - Centrais Eletricas S.A.) has taken the necessary measures for acquiring a new waste immobilization unit, in order to be in accordance with the mentioned acceptance criteria. The paper still presents the method for interim storage on site, the handling procedures for the encapsulated radwastes, as well as, data about the radioactive wastes volume generated, according to their characteristics. As results of the adopted measures, the implementation of wich has being closely followed by the Competent Authority, reasonable confidence is provided that the system should be able to generated a product with satisfactory properties.

Apresentam-se os problemas ocorridos durante o comissionamento do sistema de processamento de rejeitos solidos do reator de Angra 1. Baseadas em resultados obtidos, algumas modificacoes foram introduzidas para melhorar a qualidade do produto final. Tais modificacoes sao descritas e os resultados comparados com aqueles obtidos originalmente. Os itens relacionados ao criterio de aprovacao preliminar para rejeitos radioactivos estabelecidos pela CNEN, sao discutidos tendo em conta os problemas de transporte e classificacao final. Considerando a qualidade do produto final gerada em Angra-1, a Companhia de Servicos (Furnas-Centrais Eletricas S.A.) tem tomado medidas necessarias para adquirir uma nova unidade de imobilizacao de rejeitos, para atender aos criterios de aprovacao mencionados. Apresentam-se ainda o metodo para armazenamento provisorio no local, os procedimentos de manuseio para rejeitos radioativos encapsulados, assim como os dados sobre o volume de rejeitos radioativos gerados, de acordo com suas caracteristicas.
