  • High-Level Nuclear Wastes and the Environment: Analyses of Challenges and Engineering Strategies
    World Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology, 2012, 2, 89-105 http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/wjnst.2012.23015 Published Online July 2012 (http://www.SciRP.org/journal/wjnst) High-Level Nuclear Wastes and the Environment: Analyses of Challenges and Engineering Strategies Mukhtar Ahmed Rana Physics Division, Directorate of Science, PINSTECH, Islamabad, Pakistan Email: [email protected], [email protected] Received February 11, 2012; revised April 2, 2012; accepted April 19, 2012 ABSTRACT The main objective of this paper is to analyze the current status of high-level nuclear waste disposal along with presen- tation of practical perspectives about the environmental issues involved. Present disposal designs and concepts are ana- lyzed on a scientific basis and modifications to existing designs are proposed from the perspective of environmental safety. A new concept of a chemical heat sink is introduced for the removal of heat emitted due to radioactive decay in the spent nuclear fuel or high-level radioactive waste, and thermal spikes produced by radiation in containment materi- als. Mainly, UO2 and metallic U are used as fuels in nuclear reactors. Spent nuclear fuel contains fission products and transuranium elements which would remain radioactive for 104 to 108 years. Essential concepts and engineering strate- gies for spent nuclear fuel disposal are described. Conceptual designs are described and discussed considering the long-term radiation and thermal activity of spent nuclear fuel. Notions of physical and chemical barriers to contain nu- clear waste are highlighted. A timeframe for nuclear waste disposal is proposed and time-line nuclear waste disposal plan or policy is described and discussed.

  • North Korea-South Korea Relations: Full Steam Ahead?
    Comparative Connections A Quarterly E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations North Korea-South Korea Relations: Full Steam Ahead? Aidan Foster-Carter Leeds University, UK As the humid Korean summer yields to the crisp beauty of autumn, inter-Korean ties have never been better – or at least bigger. As if to compensate for the lost year from mid-2004 to mid-2005, when Pyongyang for no good reason eschewed official contacts with Seoul, the past quarter has indeed seen, as we predicted last time, a packed calendar of meetings: hardly a day went by without one. Moreover, this intense intercourse looks set to continue. Does quantity mean quality? As ever, some of these encounters were more formalistic than substantive. Nor has North Korea yet delivered all that it has promised – much less all that South Korea would like. Nonetheless, economic progress in particular seems to be moving at last toward sustained cooperation. Security issues are more problematic: while Six-Party Talks on the nuclear issue finally agreed on principles in September, both the interpretation and realization of this accord promise to be thorny. Seoul’s mediating role, while welcome at one level, also raised questions about how far inter-Korean progress was being made at the expense of the ROK’s strained alliance with the U.S. or its rocky relations with Japan. More business, faster The first half of 2005 ended with ministerial talks in Seoul on June 21-24, the 15th since the June 2000 Pyongyang summit, and the first in over a year. The second half kicked off with a high- level meeting: the 10th session of the inter-Korean Economic Cooperation Promotion Committee (ECPC) on July 9-12, again in Seoul.

  • N. Korea Resumes Domestic Flights As Tourism Jumps 20 Percent
    Beat: News N. Korea resumes domestic flights as tourism jumps 20 percent -, 15.07.2014, 22:35 Time USPA News - North Korea has reopened some of its domestic flight routes for the first time in years after the number of foreign tourists arriving in the reclusive country jumped by 20 percent during the first six months of the year, representatives confirmed on Tuesday. Air Koryo, the country`s sole airline, said in an advertisement published by the state-owned newspaper Pyongyang Times that it will resume domestic flights from mid-July. "The flights will take local and foreign tourists and businesspeople to scenic attractions and economic development zones," the airline said. The advertisement said it will offer flights between the capital Pyongyang and Sondok Airport in South Hamgyong province on Mondays, flights between Pyongyang and Orang Airport near the city of Chongjin on Tuesdays, and flights between Pyongyang and Samjiyon Airport in Ryanggang province on Wednesdays. Chinese tour operator Young Pioneer Tours (YPT) said Air Koryo restarted the domestic flights on Monday. "Indicative of the changing face of tourism in North Korea, the availability of regular domestic flights is set to increase the opportunity to travel within the DPRK," the tour operator said, referring to North Korea by its official name, the Democratic People`s Republic of Korea. Foreigners previously had to charter aging Soviet-era aircraft to fly between cities, a journey which can take several days by rail or road. "Regular flights like this have not been scheduled before - at least not in the six years we`ve been doing this," said Troy Collings of Young Pioneer Tours.

Founded in 1975, the thrust of the Forum’s work is to help develop cooperative policies in the Asia- Pacific region through debate and analyses undertaken with the region’s leaders in the academic, government, and corporate arenas. The Forum’s programs encompass current and emerging political, security, economic/business, and oceans policy issues. It collaborates with a network of more than 30 research institutes around the Pacific Rim, drawing on Asian perspectives and disseminating its projects’ findings and recommendations to opinion leaders, governments, and publics throughout the region. An international Board of Governors guides the Pacific Forum’s work. The Forum is funded by grants from foundations, corporations, individuals, and governments, the latter providing a small percentage of the forum’s $1.2 million annual budget. The Forum’s studies are objective and nonpartisan and it does not engage in classified or proprietary work.

  • North Korea, the World's Most Secretive Country
    NORTH KOREA, THE WORLD’S MOST SECRETIVE COUNTRY with Phil and Allie Dunnington 18 th - 29 th of August 2013 North Korea, or the People’s Democratic Republic of Korea (in short DPRK) is one of the least visited and secret countries on the planet. Phil and I went on a mind blowing 7 day trip to North Korea only 5 years ago. Every day was packed with new incredible visits of massive mausoleums and monuments but also beautiful ancient temples or tombs set in untouched landscape. Fascinating also our private escort to the DMZ (North/South Korean border) and our stay in a traditional wooden Korean house in the lovely town of Kaesong. So, I would like to offer you the chance to join me on a new route around the country on a private charter flight up to sacred Mt Paekdu – the birthplace of all the ‘dear leaders’. Mt Paekdu is a beautiful volcano with a crater lake inside and also the base camp for military actions during the Korean war. We are now also allowed to visit the harbour town of Chongjin and Wonsan, places that have just be opened for the first time ever to foreign visitors. Expect to experience something you could not compare with anywhere else in the world! As a final highlight we will visit the Mass Games in Pyongyang with over 100,000 participants celebrating the 60th anniversary of the end of the Korean War (which of course – according to the North Koreans – was won in great triumph by the DPRK!). Things are changing even in such a closely monitored country and with our visit we also contribute to gentle reforms within the country (more relaxed attitudes on photography, opening of new destinations, aid projects etc).
