Nonpower reactor waste summary
Thanks to all who responded to the two waste questions concerning
half-lives and allowed decay-in-storage time. I want to give a brief
summary of an interesting trend.
As nonpower reactor generators seek relicensing the trend is to
at least ask for a longer half life for decay-in-storage.
DIS Half life Current License Proposed License
Days
60-89 5 2
90 3 3
90-150 2 5
Additionally, I asked about what half life would encompass a majority
of the waste generated. The responses ranged from 14 days to almost
270 days.
