Status of the intergovernmental collaboration in development of the nuclear fuel cycle

Abstract

While it has been proposed to adopt all possible means to satisfy energy demand taking resource protection in consideration, the nuclear industry is worried about the fear of nuclear proliferation and regulation. Instead of the problems concerning the possibility of utilizing atomic energy, now the urgent necessity to cope with various problems accompanying the completion of nuclear fuel cycle, especially the managements of wastes and plutonium, and the method of solving the problems caused by the international distributions of resources, technologies and industrial capabilities, which are not as situations demand, have been investigated internationally. The activities by CEC and IAEA in the field of atomic energy are important as are well known. As for the fields of active intergovernmental collaboration, the securing of uranium resources and the balance of the supply and demand, safety and radiation protection, the scientific aspect of atomic energy, the management of wastes and others are discussed. As the most important conclusions concerning waste management, considerable misunderstanding was seen on the technical side many countries exert the efforts to establish the waste management policy, and it is necessary to help the technical development and the legal and institutional approaches at the intergovernmental level.
