AFCI Repository Impact Evaluation Report Systems Analysis Progress - FY03
This activity will assess the waste management benefits from AFC, specifically both short and long term benefits for the U.S. geologic repository program. This includes quantitative evaluation of repository issues (heat load and thermal management, mass and volume, radiotoxicity and dose, waste form optimization, etc.) where AFC can provide the technical basis for improvements in cost, capacity and performance for a repository, and the technical potential to defer the need for additional repositories. Supporting analysis will be obtained from ANL, LANL and SRS for inclusion into an Interim Report that will serve as input to the ''Integrated Modeling'' and ''Economic Analysis'' activities, and a Final Report that will document the results of the activity. This activity will endeavor to establish cooperation with DOE-OCRWM to establish mutual understanding of potential repository impacts.
