AbstractAbstract
[en] ANSTO is building a nuclear waste treatment plant that represents a significant step change in the treatment of intermediate-level waste (ILW) from Molybdenum-99 nuclear medicine production. This industrial scale facility shall deploy ANSTO Synroc technologies; a wasteform tailored for immobilizing fission products, an integrated process line for converting liquid waste into free-flowing powder, automated canister filling and sealing, and a hot isostatic pressing (HIP) system designed for remote operation. The HIP represents the last processing step to consolidate the wasteform into a final durable solid compact with the required performance characteristics. This paper shall outline the various phases of development in realising the final plant design as well as timelines to progress through cold- and hot-commissioning. Further, plans for storage and final disposal of the HIPed canister product will be discussed. (authors)
