    Quantification of effluents in the production of nuclear fuel
    2021 - SAKAI, M.C.C.B.; RIELLA, H.G.; CARVALHO, E.F.U.
    The Brazil with the purpose of becoming self-sufficient in the production of radioisotopes and radioactive sources used in nuclear medicine, agriculture and the environment developed the project of a multipurpose reactor of 30 megawatts of power to attend the national demand. In the Nuclear and Energy Research Institute (IPEN), Nuclear Fuel Center (CCN) is responsible for the manufacture of fuel for the reactor IEA-R1 and, possibly, the multipurpose reactor fuels. In order to meet the demand for the reactors was designed a new manufacturing plant with a maximum capacity of 60 fuel elements, which is 10 nowadays. The increase in production as a consequence will increase the volume of effluents generated. The current concern with the environment it is necessary to draw up a management plan to make the process sustainable, which will result in environmental, economic and social benefits. The fuel production process generates various types of effluent containing uranium or not – being solid, gaseous and liquid with different physical and chemical characteristics. The aim of this work is to follow the process of nuclear fuel production and to identify, quantify and characterize the effluents, especially liquids, to subsequently draw up a management plan and eventually dispose of responsibly in the environment.
