  Belgium mulls life extension for more reactors
  The Belgian government is exploring the idea of extending the operational life of its three oldest reactors by two years, a variety of news outlets are reporting.
  Those reactors—Units 1 and 2 at the Doel facility and Unit 1 at Tihange, sporting a combined capacity of 1,852 MWe—were slated to be permanently shuttered in 2025 in keeping with the country’s nuclear phase-out policy.

15th International High-Level Radioactive Waste Management Conference (IHLRWM 2015)

2015

Description

The 15th International High-Level Radioactive Waste Management Conference (IHLRWM 2015) contains over 130 papers. The conference theme, "Real World Solutions for Integrated Management of Used Fuel and HLW," reflects the progress and activities under way around the world that collectively demonstrate that technical solutions exist and are being implemented for the safe storage, transportation, and disposal of long-lived, high-activity products and wastes from commercial nuclear power as well as legacy defense-related activities. This narrative addresses and counters the commonly held belief that there is no solution to the nuclear waste problem.

Some topics of interest include: repository licensing, borehole disposal: general, regulatory and institutional topics--managing unique inventories of used fuel and HLW, and regulatory safety assessment.
