In-Vessel Melt Retention Severe Accident Management Strategy for Existing and Future NPPs (IVMR)

Start date: Jun 1, 2015, End date: May 31, 2019,

The stabilization of molten corium is recognised as essential if a safe and stable state is to be reached following a severe accident. Among the possible options, In-Vessel Melt Retention (IVMR) appears as an attractive solution that would minimize the risks of containment failure (less Hydrogen produced, no corium-concrete interaction), if it can be proved to be feasible.The strategy is already a ...

Code for European Severe Accident Management (CESAM)

Start date: Apr 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2017,

The Fukushima accidents highlighted that both the in-depth understanding of such sequences and the development or improvement of adequate severe accident management measures is essential in order to further increase the safety of the nuclear power plants operated in Europe. CESAM (Code for European Severe Accident Management) is a R&D project that aims in particular at the improvement of the Europ ...

Advanced Safety Assessment : Extended PSA (ASAMPSA_E)

Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

The Fukushima nuclear accident in Japan resulted from the combination of two correlated extreme external events (earthquake and tsunami). The consequences (flooding in particular) went beyond what was considered in the initial NPP design. Such situations can be identified using PSA methodology that complements the deterministic approach for beyond design accidents. If the performance of a Level 1 ...

Studies on the effects of CHRONic EXPOsure of marine organisms to contaminants from industry in the English Channel (CHRONEXPO)

Start date: May 31, 2008, End date: Dec 30, 2014,

Objectif général :Espace maritime partagé par le Royaume-Uni et la France, la Manche est le lieu d'un trafic maritime intense avec un risque potentiel réel de pollution accidentelle. Les répercussions d'un tel accident maritime sont graves en raison des multiples usages du milieu marin, en particulier pour la pêche, l'aquaculture, les loisirs et le tourisme. Le projet CHRONEXPO a pour but de contr ...
