長半減期低発熱放射性廃棄物(TRU廃棄物)のうち、核種濃度の高いものについては地層処分することが考えられており、さらに、その合理化方策の一つとして、高レベル廃棄物との併置処分について検討が進められている。我が国の代表的な地質環境を想定した解析では、一定の離間距離を設けることによって処分場間の相互の影響を避けることが可能との見通しが得られ、原子力委員会においても併置処分の技術的成立性があるものと判断されている。一方、(1)併置処分の評価にかかわる信頼性向上,(2)ジェネリックな評価基盤の拡充,(3)幅広い地質環境への柔軟な対応という観点から、今後検討すべき課題も残されている。本報告ではTRU廃棄物の処分概念を含め、処分技術検討の現状と、今後の具体的な検討課題について報告する。

Long half-life low heat generating radioactive waste (TRU waste) containing higher amount of radionuclide is considered to be disposed into a geologic formation. As an optimized geologic disposal of the waste, a technical possibility of co-disposal with high-level radioactive waste is being studied. An assessment result shows that a co-disposal is possible in a Japanese representative geologic environment by setting these repositories at a certain distance apart because reciprocal influences can be avoided. Atomic Energy Commission of Japan deliberated on the result and judged that the co-disposal concept described in the 2nd progress TRU report has a technical possibility. On the other side, future studies are required from the view points of (1) more reliable assessment of co-disposal, (2) expansion of generic assessment basis, and (3) flexible correspondence for wide geologic environmental conditions. This article shows a current status of the investigations of TRU waste disposal including an overview of the disposal concept and concrete items for the future studies.
