Probabilistic fault displacement hazard analysis (PFDHA) is a relatively new methodology, and actual examples of applications are quite limited. This publication provides an introduction to probabilistic approaches to fault displacement hazard assessment with reference to relevant IAEA safety standards.
Addresses the basics of the application of a graded approach in the regulatory oversight of nuclear installations, describes the approaches currently implemented by several regulatory bodies around the world and, based on these examples, proposes a generic methodology for application of a graded approach to regulation of nuclear installations.
Following adoption of the Paris Agreement, the IAEA initiated a coordinated research project (CRP) to support Member States assess the potential role of nuclear energy in their national climate and energy strategies. This publication presents the findings of the CRP, which brought together research teams from twelve countries.
This publication provides information and insights on lessons identified, and best practices to reflect the recent status of the worldwide nuclear power industry and to provide further detailed guidelines and assistance in enhancing the fire safety of operating NPPs.
Provides information on the background, programme and methodology of the Nuclear Law Institute (NLI), and its impact on Member States. Reflection on current topics, trends and developments in international and national nuclear law to which the NLI has contributed through the past decade is also included.
Summarises the findings of Working Group 9 carried out during the IAEA EMRAS II (Environmental Modelling for Radiation Safety) programme. The results presented draw on international model validation exercises conducted to test and improve the predictive ability of models used for the assessment of radioactive contamination in urban settings.
Providing useful information on optimized chemistry control for pressurized heavy water reactors (PHWRs), this publication presents up to date knowledge on the topic, including corrosion phenomena observed in the primary heat transport system and consequent effects on fuel reliability in PHWRs.
This publication presents the outcome of a workshop which addressed the challenges for Member States regarding self-reliance and sustainability of their national nuclear institutes.
Presents the results of an IAEA coordinated research project (CRP). The benchmark analysis performed under this CRP covered steady state and transient conditions for research reactors across a range of designs, power levels, operating regimes and experimental facilities.
Presents methods for proper plant and soil sample processing for IRMS analysis. The publication presents a selection of standard operating procedures and provides highly detailed guidance on sample preparation that will support practitioners in conducting reliable isotope analysis on plant and soil materials.
Provides a basic structure and common reference for knowledge management assist visits (KMAVs). As such, it is written primarily for the team members of KMAVs and the counterpart requesting a visit. The publication provides guidelines across the various activities inherent in KMAVs.
Mindful of possible future limitations on the availability of uranium, the introduction of the thorium fuel cycle is potentially a complementary source of nuclear energy. This publication assimilates current knowledge of thorium geology and mineralization into a brief account on the worldwide occurrence of thorium resources.
Discusses the development and application of a hierarchical structure of safety goals encompassing high level goals and detailed technical requirements that may assist in forming a coherent and consistent approach to nuclear safety.
Summarizes the current status of severe accident analysis codes and recommends areas for research and development. The information is detailed in terms of major findings,
Presents the results of an IAEA coordinated research project which served as a forum for the establishment of a research reactor material properties database for irradiated core structural components that are important to safety.
Provides an overview on aspects of the uranium production cycle, including evaluating the global uranium supply/demand situation. The publication presents insights on techniques for analysis of undiscovered resources for mineral commodities, which has formed part of a robust statistical procedure in the last 20 years.
Investigates the effects of soil management and agronomic practices in mulch-based farming systems. Impacts on soil fertility, ecosystem service efficiency, agricultural productivity are assessed. Climate change and variability in cropping or integrated crop-livestock systems are considered.
Provides information on the use of the Systematic Assessment of Regulatory Competence Needs methodology to support the implementation of the IAEA safety standards for ensuring regulatory competence in respect of radiation facilities and activities.
Presents methods for surface water sampling and sample processing through micro-diffusion and bacterial denitrification combined with laser spectroscopy. Information on such methods is often described in a very summarized way without proper illustration of every step. This publication bridges this gap for scientists, technicians and students.
Reflects new training experiences, technological developments, current practices and techniques concerning the development of instructors for nuclear power plant personnel training. It provides practical guidance on various aspects of instructor selection, development and deployment, by quoting actual examples from Member States.
Provides guidelines and best practices for the quality control of medical radioisotopes and radiopharmaceuticals. It was written by a group of experts with experience across a range of radiopharmaceuticals and is intended to support professionals in the preparation of good quality and safe products to be used in nuclear medicine procedures.
Provides new insights into the radiation treatment methodologies, particularly the evaluation of toxicity of waste water after radiation treatment, techno-economic aspects of such treatment and its integration with the existing conventional technologies.
Highlights the potential presence of uranium in ore deposits that are not commonly thought of as uraniferous and highlights potential additional sources of uranium supply. The publication also provides insights into potential legacy mine waste issues if the uranium is not extracted, and outlines various historical mining and processing approaches.
Identifies and discusses common criteria for the design of diverse actuation systems at nuclear power plants (NPPs) with the aim of developing a consensus on the adequate level of diversity in the reactor protection systems.
Focuses on the storage of spent nuclear fuel from power reactors - a topic of increasing importance to Member States. To support their needs, the IAEA has carried out successive coordinated research projects on spent fuel performance and the behaviour of spent fuel assemblies in storage since the 1980s. This publication consolidates their findings.
Provides a comprehensive overview of the technologies involved in the direct production of gallium-68. This publication serves as a specific guide for the production and quality control of metal radioisotope gallium-68 in chloride form for radiopharmaceutical production. Emphasis is given on the advances developed over the last few years.
Contains comprehensive design and safety analyses for the conversion of miniature neutron source reactors (MNSRs) and includes analyses that were performed by MNSR operating organizations participating in the CRP using data specific to their MNSR.
This publication provides the results from Working Group 1, on Reference Methodologies for Controlling Discharges of Routine Releases, of the IAEA's EMRAS II (Environmental Modelling for Radiation Safety) programme, which ran from 2009 to 2011.
