DURABILITY OF REINFORCED CONCRETE CONTAINERS NZK-150-1.5 P DURING THE DISPOSAL OF RADIOACTIVE WASTE CLASS 2

The article focuses on experimental, calculation and analytical basis demonstrating the durability of reinforced concrete NZK-150-1.5P containers designed for the deep disposal of intermediate long-lived class 2 radioactive waste in the Nizhnekanskiy rock mass (DDFRW NKM) and the associated challenges. The article shows that the regulatory framework should be updated to reduce the requirements specifying the time during which the packages have to maintain their protective properties in case of intermediate-level waste class 2 disposal.

Keywords: radioactive waste, reinforced concrete container, durability, disposal, deep disposal facility.
