Radioactive Waste Activity Resources Estimation at “Ecores” Storage Facilities

Abstract

In this paper, an estimation of radioactive waste activity resources in mothballed and being decommissioned storage facilities of the special enterprise for radioactive waste management, Unitary Enterprise “Ekores” (The Republic of Belarus), has been carried out taking into account the results of work on their comprehensive engineering and radiation research. At the same time, activity resources are differentiated by radioactive waste categories, what will serve as the basis for development of conceptual technological solutions for their extraction from storage facilities and long-term safety case.
