Structural performance of multi-metal component (MULTIMETAL)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,
In a nuclear power plant, a single metallic component may be fabricated from different materials. For example, RPV components are made from ferritic steel, whereas some of the connecting pipelines are fabricated from austenitic stainless steel. As a consequence different components often need to be connected by so-called dissimilar metal welds (DMW).Despite extensive research in Euratom Framework ...

Fast / Instant Release of Safety Relevant Radionuclides from Spent Nuclear Fuel (FIRST-Nuclides)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
The EURATOM FP7 Collaborative Project “Fast / Instant Release of Safety Relevant Radionuclides from Spent Nuclear Fuel (CP FIRST-Nuclides)” is established with the overall objective to provide for improved understanding of the fast / instantly released radionuclides from disposed high burn-up UO2 spent nuclear fuel. This issue is given a high priority in the SRA of the IGD-TP. The outcome of the p ...

Treatment and Disposal of Irradiated Graphite and Other Carbonaceous Waste (CARBOWASTE)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2013,
"Gas-Cooled Reactors (GCR), RBMK and some Material Test Reactors (MTR) make use of graphite as moderator of the fuel, structures of the core and/or thermal columns. During operation, the graphite and other carbonaceous materials like carbon brick, pyrocarbon and silicon carbide coatings are contaminated by fission products and neutron activation. These irradiated carbonaceous wastes are problemati ...

REDOX PHENOMENA CONTROLLING SYSTEMS (RECOSY)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
Main objectives of ReCosy are the sound understanding of redox phenomena controlling the long-term release/retention of radionuclides in nuclear waste disposal and providing tools to apply the results to Performance Assessment/Safety Case. Although redox is not a new geochemical problem, different questions are still not resolved and thus raised by implementers and scientists. From a top-down appr ...
