Sustainability of Life Cycle Management for Nuclear Cementation-Based Technologies

Sustainability of Life Cycle Management for Nuclear Cementation-Based Technologies edited by Dr. Rahman and Dr. Ojovan presents the latest knowledge and research on the management of cementitious systems within nuclear power plants. It covers the aging, development and updates of regulatory frameworks on a global scale, the development of cementitious systems for the immobilization of problematic wastes, and the decommissioning and decontamination of complex cementitious systems. The editors and their team of experts combine their practical knowledge to provide the reader with a thorough understanding on the sustainability of life cycle management of cementitious systems within the nuclear industry, by providing: A comparative tool that presents national regulations concerning cementitious systems within nuclear power plants A tool to check international and national evaluation results of the sustainability of different systems A reference to help the development of performance test procedures A guide on ageing nuclear power plants and the long term behaviour of these systems in active and passive safety environments A solutions manual for problematic issues in aging management and decommissioning, and designing cementitious systems for immobilizing problematic wastes. Presents the latest information on the behaviour of different cementitious systems used in the nuclear industry in one comprehensive resourceIncludes scientific justification of system behaviour during the design, operation, maintenance and decommissioning phasesAids the reader in the development of evaluation tests for problematic wastes INDICE: 1.
