  • Published : 2018.11.01

Abstract

KAERI has about 185 tons of $D-UF_6$ from 1986 and it being stored 16 48Y type cylinders inside of storage building. The $D-UF_6$ cylinders should be transported to other countries for the deconversion into stable materials such as $U_3O_8$ in order to enhance the storage safety and disposal. For the transportation to other country and loading the cylinders to the deconversion facility, the sampling process is essential. The design and procedure for the sampling are now developing, and environmental effect evaluation and risk evaluation works will be performed to acquire license for the sampling.
