STRATEGIST, a data analysis & sampling design web tool for radiological characterization
Proper physical, radiological and chemical characterization of nuclear plant areas are a necessary precondition to successfully select viable dismantling methodologies and classify and segregate the different impacted (e.g., contaminated, activated) zones and materials. Acting on the upstream stage of the dismantling process is fundamental for an adequate management of all waste categories. As such, initial characterization is an essential part
INSIDER was at the CETAMA seminar
In October 2021, Insider attended the CETAMA seminar. CETAMA is a CEA unit that was created 60 years ago in order to improve the quality of results and to promote good practices within the analytical laboratories of the nuclear sector. On the occasion of its 60 years of existence, CETAMA organized, from October 19 to 21 at the Musée de
New scientific paper published by INSIDER partners in Nuclear Engineering and Technology
Have a look at the latest scientific paper written by the INSIDER partners! A new INSIDER publication is now available. This review paper is entitled “State-of-the-art and challenges of non-destructive techniques for in-situ radiological characterization of nuclear facilities to be dismantled” and has been published in the Nuclear Engineering and Technology Journal. The paper has been written as a result
INSIDER partner SCK CEN developed a 3D model to considerably reduce the footprint of decommissioning
New approach streamlines decommissioning process thanks to 3D model mapping radioactivity more accurately The nuclear research centre SCK CEN, an INSIDER consortium member, has developed a 3D model to considerably reduce the footprint of decommissioning. With this new approach, used concrete from a nuclear plant can be given a second life in the construction sector, more often than has previously been
The CHANCE project organizes a webinar series on the characterization of radioactive waste
The EU-funded project CHANCE (Characterization of conditioned radioactive waste) organizes a webinar series on characterization. Two webinars are planned at this stage: The first CHANCE webinar is planned on June 18th afternoon. The topic of this webinar is the Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy: Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) as an innovative technique to characterize outgassing of radioactive waste. During this webinar, a
New scientific papers published by INSIDER partners in ‘Progress in Nuclear Energy’
HAVE A LOOK AT THE LATEST SCIENTIFIC PAPERS WRITTEN BY THE INSIDER PARTNERS! New INSIDER publications are now available! The first one is entitled “Radiological characterisation in view of nuclear reactor decommissioning: On-site benchmarking exercise of a biological shield“. The second article is entitled “Recommendations for the selection of in situ measurement techniques for radiological characterization in nuclear/radiological installations under
Second on-site benchmarking exercises completed
The INSIDER project is developing a validation method of the radiological characterisation for the nuclear installations under decommissioning and dismantling (D&D) process. The in-situ benchmarking exercises are a fundamental part of this objective, and the first round was completed in 2018. Within the frame of INSIDER and in the autumn 2019, the second on-site benchmarking exercise was carried out at the JRC
INSIDER presented at the NKS-B RADWORKSHOP 2018
From 8-12 October, the NKS-B RADWORKSHOP 2018 took place in Roskilde (Denmark). During this 3-day event, Danièle Roudil gave a detailed presentation of INSIDER, a Horizon 2020 project that she is coordinating. Launched in June 2017, INSIDER aims to optimise radioactive waste identification during nuclear decommissioning and dismantling operations (D&D), in particular concerning nuclear power plants, post-accidental sites or nuclear
EU HORIZON 2020 PROJECT
The INSIDER project received funding from the Euratom Research and Training Programme 2014-2018 under grant agreement No 755554.
