  • "The German Approach to the Disposal of Radioactive Wastes."
    The German Approach to the Disposal of Radioactive Wastes Ernst Warnecke Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt Bundesallee 100 D-3300 Braunschweig Finnish-German Seminar on Nuclear Waste Management Otaniemi, Espoo, Finland September 23-25, 1986 THE GERMAN APPROACH TO THE DISPOSAL OF RADIOACTIVE WASTES Ernst Warnecke Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt Bundesallee 100 D-3300 Braunschweig, Federal Republic of Germany Abstract In the Federal Republic of Germany the PTB is responsible for the construction and operation of the repositories in which radioactive wastes will be disposed of. Two repository ries are planned: - Gorleben (salt dome; for all types of radioactive wastes) - Konrad (abandoned iron ore mine; for radioactive wastes with negligible thermal influence upon the host rock). The safe operation of the repositories has to be demon- strated to the licensing authorities. These are the respon- sible Ministers of the Federal States (Lander) and the mining authorities. According to the "safety criteria for the disposal of radioactive wastes in a mine", the safety of a repository has to be demonstrated by a site specific safety assessment for the normal operation of a repository, for incidents in the operational phase, and the post-opera- tional phase. These assessments result in waste acceptance requirements. The compliance of the waste packages to be disposed of with the waste acceptance requirements is checked with a waste package quality control either by random tests on waste packages or a qualification and in- spection of waste conditioning processes. Preliminary waste acceptance requirements have been set up for the planned Konrad repository. In the Kernforschungsan- lage Julich (KFA) a group for the quality control of radio- active waste has been established on behalf of the PTB.

The trip started on April 23 and was completed on May 4, 1984. The objectives of the team visit were to (1) tour the underground and surface facilities related to nuclear waste disposal in Germany and Belgium; (2) discuss possible cooperative activities with the Germans, Belgians, and the European community; and (3) establish the process for agreement at the German-U.S. bilateral meeting in late August on activities to be performed in support of salt. Nuclear waste disposal activities in these countries are very similar to many of the activities planned for the Salt Repository Program. The FRG waste disposal program includes disposal of HLW in salt. The Belgium program is of interest principally because of the freezing technique used to construct their shaft.

  • THE WORLD NUCLEAR WASTE REPORT 2019 Focus Europe. PARTNERS & SPONSORS
    THE WORLD NUCLEAR WASTE REPORT 2019 Focus Europe. PARTNERS & SPONSORS Bürgerinitiative Umweltschutz Lüchow-Dannenberg This report would have not been possible without the generous support of a diverse group of friends and partners, in particular – listed in alphabetical order – the Altner-Combecher Stiftung, Bäuerliche Notgemeinschaft Trebel, Bund für Umwelt und Naturschutz (BUND), Bürgerinitiative Umweltschutz Lüchow-Dannenberg e.V., Climate Core and Green/EFA MEPs Group in the European Parliament, Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung (HBS) and its offices in Berlin, Brussels, Paris, Prague, and Washington DC, KLAR! Schweiz, Annette und Wolf Römmig, and the Swiss Energy Foundation. Thank you all for making this possible! THE WORLD NUCLEAR WASTE REPORT — 2019 3 FOREWORD More than 40 years ago in my home region, the forest near the village of Gorleben was chosen as the location for the German National Nuclear Waste Disposal Center. The site, which is now at the country’s center but at the time was located directly on the border between East and West Germany, was meant to host all facilities for reprocessing, treatment, storage, and a deep geological repository. The company responsible (which has long since closed) intended to open the repository for spent fuel in the salt dome named Gorleben-Rambow in 1999. After Fukushima, the German government decided to phase out nuclear energy for the second time. The experience of the nuclear catastrophe in Japan in 2011 also set in motion the review of the plans for the repository at Gorleben. After around 40 years of debating and fighting over Gorleben, the German government and parliament decided in favor of a new participatory site selection process for the repos- itory for high-level nuclear waste.

  • Perspectives of Radioactive Waste Disposal in Germany – 10448 Rev
    WM 2010 Conference, March 7-11, 2010 Phoenix, AZ Perspectives of Radioactive Waste Disposal in Germany – 10448 rev. Peter W. Brennecke Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz, Salzgitter, Germany ABSTRACT In the Federal Republic of Germany the disposal of all types of solid and solidified radioactive waste in deep geological formations is still the preferred option. Within the last decade the principal issues in radioactive waste disposal may be subdivided into activities further developing and detailing the revised German radioactive waste disposal concept as well as activities concerning the operation of the Konrad, Gorleben, Morsleben and Asse II sites. Of this, the Safety Requirements on the Disposal of Heat-Generating Radioactive Waste presented by the Federal Ministry for Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU - Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz und Reaktorsicherheit) in July 2009, the licensing of the Konrad repository in May 2002 and, subsequent to the rejection of all lawsuits, the start of its construction in May 2007, as well as taking over of the responsibility for the Asse II mine by the Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS - Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz) in January 2009 are the most important topics. Future developments in the German radioactive waste disposal policy are indicated in the October 2009 coalition agreement of the new Federal Government. INTRODUCTION In the Federal Republic of Germany, the agreement between the Federal Government and the nuclear utilities which was initialled on June 14, 2000, and signed on June 14, 2001, served as basis for nuclear energy use and radioactive waste management issues during the last decade. According to this document, the former Government and the utilities agreed to limit the future utilization of the existing nuclear power plants.

  • February 1987 Monthly Report Salt Repository Project (Srp) Representative to the Federal Republic of Germany (Frg)
    FEBRUARY 1987 MONTHLY REPORT SALT REPOSITORY PROJECT (SRP) REPRESENTATIVE TO THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF GERMANY (FRG) General The GSF/IfT has a central role in the waste management research and development in the FRG. They operate the Asse salt mine which has been used for radioactive waste disposal and for development and testing of safe geological storage for high-level wastes (HLW) in salt. As indicated on the attached map, (Attachment 1) the Asse mine is situated just to the southeast of Braunschweig. To the southwest of Braunschweig is the Konrad mine, a former iron ore mine for which mining was discontinued in 1976 due to economic reasons. The GSF/IfT has also carried out research and development at the Konrad mine to demonstrate its suitability for the final disposal of waste which has a negligible thermal effect on the surrounding rock. Detailed reports concerning activities at both the Asse and Konrad mines will be submitted at a later date. The Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB -- Federal Science/Engineering Laboratory) is also located in Braunschweig. Under the FRG Federal Ministry for Science and Technology (BMFT), the PTB has responsibility for developing and licensing radioactive waste repositories.
