Sorption of radionuclides on rocks is an important factor for safety assessments of geologic disposal of radioactive wastes. Batch sorption tests were conducted to investigate effects of concentrations of NaNO and NaCl on sorption distribution coefficients(Kd) of selenium(Se) on a sandy mudstone under reducing environment of underground. The rock and groundwater used in the tests were sampled from depths of 129-156 m with special care minimizing contact with air. Se was spiked as HSe or Se to the test solutions and kept as HSe throughout the test periods by keeping reducing conditions (Eh, pH) of the solutions. Obtained Kd values were in a range of 0.015-0.037 m kg, which were as high as those for a typical sorbing element, Cs.

This paper reports Personnel Interlock System, Machine Protection System, and other Interlock System in J-PARC LINAC. The noise measures is important in MPS, we describe the noise decreasing method. The number of accelerating particles in J-PARC LINAC that can be accelerated has been deciding by ministry's guideline. Therefore, it is necessary to do severe surveillance. Here we also explain this particle monitoring instrument.

Influences of humid substances, alkaline conditions and colloids on radionuclide migration in natural barrier

For better quantitative understanding of radionuclide migration for safety assessment of geologic disposal, JAERI has been conducting experimental and modeling studies on influences of humic substances, highly alkaline conditions and colloids on sorptive and diffusional behavior of TRU in geologic materials. In the absence of fulvic acid, one of humic substances, diffusion of Am through a tuff sample was not detected. By adding fulvic acid, Am was detected in the downstream cell, which indicates the diffusion through the sample. Highly alkaline conditions arisen from cementitious materials may spread by altering chemical and physical properties of geologic materials. Through-diffusion experiments of alkaline species in granite showed that the effective diffusion coefficient of Ca and OH in a cement-equilibrated aqueous solution were found to be higher by almost two orders of magnitude than Na and OH in a NaOH solution. Radionuclide migration can be enhanced by colloids, and thus a calculation code describing the effect of colloids on radionuclide migration has been required.

Component failure rates are one of the most important inputs for PSA. Although there are many component failure rates databases for NPPs, there are few for a reprocessing plant. Therefore, in order to perform reliable PSA of a reprocessing plant, it is important to establish the failure rate database based on the actual plant maintenance data. The Tokai Reprocessing Plant (TRP) has been operating over 30 years since 1977. Maintenance records of plant components have been accumulated and compiled in the Tokai Reprocessing Plant Maintenance Support System (TORMASS). A basic study has started in the JAEA from 2005 by using the TORMASS data to contribute the development of reliable component failure rates. The outlines of the component failure estimation are summarized.
