    expected costs in printed matter 17/6179: "For the phase of decommissioning, production and operation of the safe containment (1989 - 2009), including the final storage advance payments paid to date, costs totaling around 430 million euros were incurred. Of these Around 130 million euros financed by the federal government, around 150 million euros from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia and around 150 million euros from the HKG. According to...

    Containers can be moved with seven cranes and an air cushion transport carriage. It is expected to remain at the new location for 60 years before being dismantled by robots and transferred to a final storage facility. The complex procedure is necessary because the soil beneath the reactor is radioactively contaminated. In order to limit the damage, this...

    The FZD participates in the European projects ADRIANA and CP-ESFR" (2010, p. 261). A new experimental platform for liquid metal flows (DRESDYN) was created. - Since the final storage of the radioactive spherical fuel elements of HTRs will somehow continue for the next centuries needs to be regulated, will work on reducing the volume of waste and radioactive radiation...

    Billion euros Inclusion by 2030 0,3471 billion euros Dismantling from 2030 - 2044 5,3191 billion euros total In addition, there are the THTR research costs in Switzerland and, above all, the final storage costs from 2044 until eternity. The new study expects a total of 5.997 m3 of radioactive waste. But how valid is this information and the forecast 347,1 million...

    Jülich. On February 5, 2008 we read the following advertisement on the FZJ homepage: “Development and validation of a calculation model to describe the behavior of HTR fuel particles under final storage conditions.” This is explained in more detail. A sample: “In the event of final storage of spent HTR fuel elements, it is necessary to know to what extent the coated fuel particles...

    researched in the small AVR-Jülich. By 1978 alone, around 100.000 highly radioactive THTR spherical fuel elements were sunk in the Asse mine. The Asse scandal is also a THTR scandal. There is no final storage facility in sight for the 675.000 fuel balls from the THTR Hamm. These are currently in a warehouse in Ahaus and are starting to rust. As is well known, the THTR was shut down in 1989...

    But relaunching the high-temperature reactor makes no sense. (...) TR: Does that mean you also want Germany to do more research into nuclear technology again? Treusch: In any case, about final storage facilities and reactor safety. I believe that in order to develop new types of reactors, the world is currently smart enough without us." - Because it was made "smart" by Jülich for decades. After the...

    To eliminate the nuclear industry's problems with its nuclear waste: The radioactive waste can easily be stored in new multi-purpose halls directly next to the nuclear power plants without having to prove that there is a final storage facility. And the plutonium returning from the reprocessing plants in France and Great Britain is allowed to be "burned" in German nuclear power plants, although this leads to...

    from June 14.6th 2000, it is not to be expected that such an application will be made in the foreseeable future. According to Section 9a Paragraph 3 of the Atomic Energy Act, the federal government must set up facilities to secure and dispose of radioactive waste. According to multiple federal announcements, based on the agreement of the coalition parties supporting it on October 20, 10, the federal government plans to...

    Position paper with energy policy demands for the new federal government. In it, the signatories advocate longer operating times for nuclear power plants, further exploration of the Gorleben repository site and rapid commissioning of the Konrad repository. The wish list signed by the two DGB unions represents essential parts of what has been...

    more than 90% represents the dominant mass fraction. The heavy elements in particular have a very high radiotoxicity, which remains present for many hundreds of thousands of years even after final storage due to the longevity of the elements. – That’s terrible and so completely new! The ISR has a nice suggestion, at least in terms of volume: By using it in a...
