Radiolytic Specie Generation from Internal Waste Package Criticality
Radiolytic Specie Generation from Internal Waste Package Criticality
The effects of radiation on the corrosion of various metals and alloys, particularly with respect to in-reactor processes, has been discussed by a number of authors (Shoesmith and King 1998, p.2). Shoesmith and King (1998) additionally discuss the effects of radiation of the proposed Monitored Geologic Repository (MGR) Waste Package (WP) materials. Radiation effects on the corrosion of metals and alloys include, among other things, radiolysis of local gaseous and aqueous environments lead to the fixation of nitrogen as NO, NO2, and especially HN03 (Reed and Van Konynenburg 1988, pp.

Public Values and Stakeholder Involvement - A New Framework for Performance Assessment
The objective of the RISCOM II project is to share the knowledge of the context of radioactive waste management in various European countries and to see to what extent it is possible to apply more widely the RISCOM Model (Andersson et al., 1998) in order to improve the acceptability of radioactive waste management. Thus, the project aims to promote the development of processes involving transparency, as well as means involving greater participation of the public.
