The European Commini ty's programne on the deccnmissioning of
nuclear power plants has the prime objective of developing effective
techniques and procedures for ensuring the protection of man and his
environment aginst the potential hazards of nuclear power plants that
have been finally shut down.
The Conmission of the European Ccnmunities organized this interna­
tional conference to present results achieved during the past five years
of the programne.
It also provided an opportunity for discussions amongst experts
from Member States of the European Camiunity and participating scien­
tists from outside the Qarmunity, on the issues and options for future
research.
The conference was limited to invited papers, presented by scien­
tists involved in European Conniunity contract studies. The topics
covered by the conference and in the proceedings are :
characterization of the radioactivity associated with nuclear power
plants that have been finally shut down;
- implications of maintaining shut-down nuclear power plants for long
periods before dismantling;
decontamination of metal and concrete surfaces for deconmissioning
purposes;
- dismantling of nuclear power plant components and structures;
conditioning and packaging of the radioactive waste arising from
the dismantling;
- systems for remotely controlled deccnmissioning operations;
- aspects related to the classification of solid deconmissioning
waste, namely measurement of very low-level radioactivity and
evaluation of radiological consequences;
nuclear power plant design features facilitating decommissioning;
experience with industrial-scale deccnmissioning operation.
The proceedings also report the discussions on the papers as well
as the results of two technical panels and of the concluding panel. ABBKEVIATICie
