AbstractAbstract
[en] For more than forty years, TN International supports the research reactors community in safely performing national or international transport of radioactive materials (fresh and spent fuel). TN International is bringing its experience to the various actors of the Global Threat Reduction Initiative Program (GTRI) in particular the Foreign Research Reactor Spent Nuclear Fuel (FRRSNF) acceptance programme and the Russian Research Reactor Fuel Return (RRRFR) programme. TN International owns and operates a fleet of three TN-MTR casks. Each cask can transport up to 68 MTR fuel elements. Specific baskets have been developed for transport spent fuel to the US as well as for the Mayak site. During the last decades, TN International has contributed to non-proliferation initiatives by loading and transporting casks in more than 10 countries. With the support of the AREVA network, Transnuclear Inc. in particular, TN International provides transportation services, including cask and technical assistance on site, to different Research Reactors under US Department of Energy and IAEA frameworks. This presentation will summarize our experience and futures activities for the coming years in the framework of non-proliferation initiatives. (author)
