The Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management is a 1997 International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) treaty. [1] It is the first treaty to address radioactive waste management on a global scale.
A summary of the amounts of radioactive waste and management approaches for most developed countries are presented and reviewed periodically as part of a joint convention of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). [3]
Data are from IAEA-TECDOC-1105, [2] pages 3–4. 1946 First dumping operation at Northeast Pacific Ocean (about 80 km off the coast of California) 1957 First IAEA Advisory Group Meeting on Radioactive Waste Disposal into the Sea; 1958 First United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea
In 2000, a Specified Radioactive Waste Final Disposal Act called for creation of a new organization to manage high level radioactive waste, and later that year the Nuclear Waste Management Organization of Japan (NUMO) was established under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
The advanced reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel is a potential key to achieve a sustainable nuclear fuel cycle and to tackle the heavy burden of nuclear waste management. In particular, the development of such advanced reprocessing systems may save natural resources, reduce waste inventory and enhance the public acceptance of nuclear energy.
The IAEA, based on its two-year review of TEPCO's wastewater release plan, concluded in July that if it is carried out as planned, it will have a negligible impact on the environment, marine life ...
The UK Government, in common with many other countries and supported by scientific advice, has identified permanent deep underground disposal as the most appropriate means of disposing of higher activity radioactive waste. Radioactive Waste Management (RWM) was established in 2014 to deliver a Geological Disposal Facility (GDF) and is a ...
The calculation of the total cost of decommissioning is challenging, as there are large differences between countries regarding inclusion of certain costs, such as on-site storage of fuel and radioactive waste from decommissioning, dismanting of non-radioactive buildings and structures, and transport and (final) disposal of radioactive waste.
