High-level Waste

Contributing to the scientific basis of the safety case for deep geological disposal by reducing uncertainties of matrix dissolution of SNF and radionuclide release from SNF.

a

Secondary Phases

Investigating the immobilization of radionuclides by a structural uptake on a mechanistic level with a focus on the formation of solid-solutions, which can have a major impact on radionuclide solubility and retention.

a

Reactive Transport

Analysing complex coupled thermo-hydraulical-mechanical-chemical-biological processes relevant to radionuclide release and transport in the near- and far-field of geological repositories for radioactive wastes on different scales.

a

Hydrometallurgical Separation Methods

Developing processes for separating radionuclides from nuclear waste solutions in order to minimize the volume of the radiotoxic waste, to safely condition residual waste and to optimize complex and time consuming procedures.

a

Nuclear Reference Materials and Analytics

Further advancing methods for the production of monodisperse microparticles (Ø: ca. 1.2 µm) intended as (certified) reference materials for analytical measurements in nuclear safeguards.

a

Nuclear Safeguards and Security

Developing concepts, methods and techniques in support of the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons and nuclear disarmamant verification.
