Nuclear Decommissioning A feasibility study of potential R&D initiatives for Energiforsk’s nuclear programme
| 2015:131 | Patrik Fors
At time of writing, the decommissioning of the oldest Swedish and Finnish nuclear power facilities was approaching. This is a challenging task to be carried out with high safety and cost efficiency. In order to facilitate this a mapping of knowledge gaps for research and development to address was carried out.
Each decommissioning project of a nuclear facility is associated with large challenges. This report presents the outcome of a screening study aimed at identifying potential R&D initiatives to be conducted within Energiforsk’s nuclear programme. The main result of the study is three project charters that Energiforsk is recommended to pursue to define and optimise upcoming decommissioning projects:
- Lessons Learned.
- Logistics.
- Conventional Waste Management.
