Processing of Irradiated Graphite to Meet Acceptance Criteria for Waste Disposal : Results of a Coordinated Research Project Paperback / softback

Part of the IAEA TECDOC Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Graphite is widely used in the nuclear industry and in research facilities and this has led to increasing amounts of irradiated graphite residing in temporary storage facilities pending disposal.

This publication arises from a coordinated research project (CRP) on the processing of irradiated graphite to meet acceptance criteria for waste disposal.

It presents the findings of the CRP, the general conclusions and recommendations.

The topics covered include graphite management issues, characterization of irradiated graphite, processing and treatment, immobilization and disposal.

Included on the attached CD-ROM are formal reports from the participants.
