Description

A great number of nuclear submarines are due to be decommissioned before 2000.

The political decisions surrounding the disposal of nuclear compartments, radioactive wastes and spent fuel differ appreciably between the countries that own the boats.

The decision makers involved thus need help in comparing and assessing alternative options for the decommissioning of their nuclear submarine fleets.

The present volume offers such assistance, with its discussions of the risks associated with long-term water storage of the boats, radioactive and chemical contamination, spent fuel and waste management, and handling and recycling reactor compartments.
