Determination of radioactivity levels and recommendations for the exemption of radioactive waste arising outside the nuclear fuel cycle; Determination des niveaux de radioactivite et recommandations pour l`exemption de dechets radioactifs ne provenant pas du cycle de combustible nucleaire

Abstract

The present study is aimed at proposing radioactivity levels, which present a limit below which waste of very low radioactivity content arising in hospital and research facilities may follow the same disposal routes as normal refuse. After having described the actual French situation of management of this waste type, a methodology is given, allowing the evaluation of limits of radioactivity to be applied rendering such waste acceptable for normal disposal facilities. These limits are determined following realistic exposure scenarios for wastes and the population concerned. Together with these proposed limits, recommendations are given aimed at ensuring that criteria for the transition to the public domain are not violated by producers. 1 fig.; 35 tabs; 29 refs.
