Issues of silt deposit treatment in storage reservoirs for liquid radioactive wastes (LRW) in Gremikh''s section of SevRAO
This article analyzes topical problems of decommissioning the LWR reservoirs in Gremikh's section of SevRAO. The authors specify design specifications of LWR reservoirs and their current state, radionuclide composition of LWR and bottom deposits in reservoirs, such as radionuclides 137Cs and 90Sr. Is has been shown, that all reservoirs (except one) contain low-active LWR. Hereby processing methods for bottom silt deposits are analyzed considering specific location of Gremikh's section. Three ways of treatment of bottom silt deposits in LWR reservoirs have been proposed.
