    IAEA Mission: decommissioning of the facilities and Radioactive Materials Management

    • Email

    IAEA mission was held at Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant, which addressed the issues of buildings and structures decommissioning, decommissioning methods, as well as processing of radioactively contaminated concrete and waste generated, including radioactive ones.

    Although the final state of Chornobyl NPP site does not include a large-scale dismantling of existing buildings and structures, a considerable amount of reinforced concrete waste will be formed during the Central Halls hipped roof reconstruction and the equipment dismantling. Another source of its generation will be Shelter object unstable structures dismantling. All this right now requires consideration of such waste decontamination and processing in order to minimize its volume. Existing at Chornobyl NPP decontamination system today is not intended for large-scale decontamination, does not allow to decontaminate firmly fixed contamination and leads to formation of a large volume of secondary waste.

    On 30th November, there was a regular visit of TEPCO's (Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings, Inc.) representatives to the Chornobyl NPP site. The Japanese delegation was headed by Mr. Shigemitsu Suzuki, Vice President of TEPCO.

    Experts from TEPCO visit the ChNPP site on a regular basis. The Japanese nuclear engineers are interested in experience of ChNPP in the field of the accident consequences elimination, and decommissioning practices as well. We have similar problems and issues. You will recall that the tsunami-induced nuclear accident happened at Fukushima NPP in 2011.

    Currently, TEPCO is dealing with the decommissioning of its own Plant — Fukushima NPP. This time the Japanese specialists visited the space under the Arch of New Safe Confinement (NSC) with the purpose to study remotely handling equipment, cranes and life support systems of the NSC.

    • Email

    International Scientific-Practical Conference with a focus on discussion of the most relevant issues of the Shelter Object transformation into an environmentally safe system started at the Chornobyl NPP on the threshold of 32nd anniversary of the Shelter construction completion.

    Dismantling of the Shelter Object’s unstable structures will commence after the NSC commissioning that is expected next year. These works are planned to be finished by 2023. Such circumstances require now proceeding with the detailed elaboration of long-term measures on the Shelter Object transformation into the environmentally safe system. This is actually the main task of the Conference.

    The Conference was opened by Valeriy Seyda, Acting General Director of SSE ChNPP, and Oleh Nasvit, First Deputy Head of the State Agency of Ukraine on Exclusion Zone Management (SAUEZM).

    • Email

    The third planned training course for Chornobyl NPP’s personnel delivered by specialists of Belgian company Tecnubel in the field of "BROKK-330 maintenance: base level" was started.

    BROKK-330 Manipulators are used in ICSRM for works performance. The caterpillar-mounted manipulator of this model is located in a temporary storage for High-Level, Intermedium and Low-Level Long-Lived Radioactive Waste (RAW). It is intended to place RAW packages in storage compartments. Operator controls BROKK manipulators remotely using control panels and video surveillance systems.

    This is the first training course devoted to this manipulators model. Three earlier delivered training courses at Chornobyl NPP within 2017-2018 were aimed on improvement of the skills in handling, maintenance and repair of BROKK-180 manipulators, used for the Solid Radioactive Waste retrieval.
