Accidents.pdf - Nuclear power plantsPlag Sellafield (formerly_Windscale), Great Britain In November 2001, the European Parliament published a study on the possible toxic effects of the reprocessing plants in La Hague (France) and Sellafield, which was written by WISE/Paris under the direction of Mycle Schneider . Their conclusion was that up to this point...
What has strategic importance for President Bolsonaro threatens the existence of small family farmers. * May 21, 1986 - (INES 1-3) - La Hague, FRA Nuclear Power PlantsPlag La Hague - World's largest reprocessing plant - X accidents The La Hague reprocessing plant is located in the Manche region on the English Channel in northwestern France, 25 km west of the city of Cherbourg. According to the...
does this have anything to do with the civil use of nuclear power? Very much. All links in the nuclear chain - be it uranium mining, nuclear power plants, research reactors, enrichment or reprocessing facilities - have made a decisive contribution to the fact that many states are now technically capable of developing nuclear weapons within a short period of time - some have already done so - open or...

The fact that the FZJ was brought about consciously or is due to incompetence can only be assumed. The FZJ is currently trying, in collaboration with the state and federal government, to move the nuclear waste to the USA for reprocessing. Legally, the export of nuclear waste is only permitted for research reactors. However, the AVR is an experimental reactor for commercial electricity generation (1967 -...
THTR Circular No. 139 June 2012
The agreement between Karlsruhe and Islamabad spoke of the peaceful use of nuclear energy, but sensitive areas of uranium enrichment, reprocessing and heavy water production should also be explicitly covered. All of them were areas that could be used both peacefully and militarily." -- These processes became apparent because...

of the old, problematic reactor lines. He mentions the "possible misuse of plutonium for the production of nuclear explosives as well as the known risks of reprocessing" as well as "problems with the final storage of nuclear waste" in order to bring a special variant of thorium reactors into play as an apparent alternative: "All previous attempts ...

Years later, Foreign Minister Genscher and his Brazilian counterpart Azeredo da Silveire signed the German-Brazilian nuclear treaty, which covered eight reactors, uranium enrichment and reprocessing. In 1976, the financing agreement was concluded with loan protection through Hermes guarantees from Germany. In 1978, Junta chief Geisel also stated during a visit to Bonn...

begin. There was plenty of reason for this, as the VEW had a total of four nuclear power plants in operation, construction or planning at two locations. VEW is also a member of the German Society for the Reprocessing of Nuclear Fuels, which is responsible for the construction of the interim nuclear waste storage facility in Ahaus and the reprocessing plant in Gorleben. It took about half a year to organize...

no longer control it and no longer prevent further distribution for military purposes. In addition to the reactors, Generation IV also requires a gigantic park of reprocessing plants. The extraction of new fissile material carried out here would have to be monitored particularly intensively. In order to rule out misuse, plutonium should first...

(15). Risen from ruins... Due to Argentina's rapid economic decline and the associated financial bottlenecks, Atucha 2 could neither be completed nor remanufactured. In 1997, the privatization of Atucha 2 was decided but not implemented (16). It wasn't until the beginning of 2006 that the nuclear carousel began to move again, as the Argentinian...
us on June 21.6st. Quite generally: "The infrastructure that can be used militarily begins with the basic nuclear technology know-how and is then completed when either uranium enrichment or reprocessing, i.e. facilities in which weapons-grade fissile material can be produced, are added." - So further research needs to be done. Event: North Rhine-Westphalia and South Africa Top of page The...

Together they generate three quarters of their annual turnover of ten billion euros with nuclear technology, covering all areas from uranium mining to reactor construction to fuel reprocessing. Areva employs over 45.000 people and is 84 percent state-owned. Siemens has been cooperating with Framatome and Cogema since 1989. In recent years, Siemens...
1988 - Lothar Hahn on the subject of proliferation in pebble bed reactors
When plutonium is enclosed in the fuel elements, these fissile materials are no longer accessible. They can only be accessed through a reprocessing process. Civilian reprocessing of HTR fuel elements - as mentioned above - has so far been hampered by, among other things, unresolved safety and radiation protection problems (e.g. in connection with the combustion of graphite)...
