Garching, January 17th, 2006: L. Ooms EFDA Technology Workprogramme 2005 Activities Field: Safety and Environment Task Area: Waste management Kick off Meeting TW5-TSW-001
Kick off Meeting TW5-TSW-001-D1.2: Define the activity limits for the dismantling, melting, fabrication or reuse and waste. TW5-TSW-001-D4: Define the categories of materials based on the different paths in the material cycle of a fusion reactor. TW5-TSW-001-D5: Define R&D.
TW5-TSW-001-D1.2 Define the activity limits for the dismantling, melting, fabrication or reuse and waste. Previous studies Experience in dismantling a fission reactor Melting facilities for materials of fission reactors Next step What’s possible with fusion materials
TW5-TSW-001-D1.2 Input information Available information Nuclear melting facilities Dismantling projects Experience in remote handling Regulations for treatment, transport, waste, … of radioactive materials
TW5-TSW-001-D1.2 Objectives The activity limits for fusion materials will let us: Quantify the decay Time Define the Range of activities which can be treated Waste production during recycling: what to do with it Consequences for the recycling strategy Planning End of work mid of June 2006 Final report end of June 2006
TW5-TSW-001-D4 Define the categories of materials based on the different paths in the material cycle of a fusion reactor. Previous studies Categories based on dose rate (CRM, SRM, …) Next step Categorisation based on the different paths in the material cycle.
TW5-TSW-001-D4 Input information TW5-TSW-001-D1.1 to D1.3, information regarding materials involved, dose rate, masses, decay time, … Material flow management at BR3 during dismantling. Eurofer, Tungsten, Beryllium, … specialists at SCK
TW5-TSW-001-D4 Objectives Make an overview of material categories based on: Materials to be recycled Recycling paths Economical factors Material availability Planning Start of work june 2006 End of work mid of October 2006 Final report end of October 2006
TW5-TSW-001-D5 Define R&D. Input information Previous documents Findings / open questions in tasks: TW5-TSW-001-D1.1 to D1.5: TW5-TSW-001-D4.
TW5-TSW-001-D5 Objectives Pin point the difficulties in the recycling process encountered during the different studies. Define possible R&D programs Indicate other techniques than melting Planning Start of work February 2006 End of work mid of October 2006 Final report end of October 2006
