Improved Nuclear SIte characterization for waste minimization in D&D operations under constrained EnviRonment

Decommissioning and dismantling (D&D) operations are strongly dependent on the facilities history and the inventory of present radionuclides. The D&D processes are significant source of radioactive waste and their management is a major challenge from technical, economical, financial and societal point of view.The project focused on a fit-for-purpose representation of the radiological status of facilities (or components), at a relevant precision level allowing making decisions concerning different D&D scenario options. Based on common case studies in the form of interlaboratory comparisons on matrix representative reference samples and benchmarking, the project delivered comprehensive and realistic conclusions formalised in guidelines, recommendations and elements for pre-standardisation initiatives.
