Experience of waste management in decommissioning of FUGEN

Tezuka, Masashi

no journal, , 

Regarding the disposal of radioactive waste, Japan Nuclear Fuel already operates a repository for commercial reactor at Rokko, and waste materials such as research facilities are under consideration by JAEA, the implementing entity. In Fugen under decommissioning, the dismantled waste is separated and managed according to the radioactivity level classification, type, lineage, etc., and the waste management system is used to manage the history.
