Abstract

To evaluate radiological impact from the operation of a low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste disposal facility, a logical presentation and explanation of expected accidental scenarios is essential to the stakeholders of the disposal facility. The logical assessment platform and procedure, including analysis of the safety function of disposal components, operational hazard analysis, operational risk analysis, and preparedness of remedial measures for operational safety, are improved in this study. In the operational risk analysis, both design measures and management measures are suggested to make it possible to connect among design, operation, and safety assessment within the same assessment platform. For the preparedness of logical assessment procedure, classification logic of an operational accident is suggested based on the probability of occurrence and consequences of assessment results. The improved assessment platform and procedure are applied to an operational accident analysis of the Korean low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste disposal facility and partly presented in this paper.

중 저준위 방사성폐기물 처분시설의 운영 중 사고로 인한 방사선적 영향을 평가하기 위해서는 운영 중 발생 가능한 사고에 대한 타당성이 입증되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 처분시설의 운영 중 사고분석 체계를 처분시설의 구성요소에 대한 안전기능분석, 잠재위험요소분석, 위험도분석, 그리고 향후 조치대안으로 사고평가체계를 개선하였다. 이를 위하여 위험도분석에 필요한 설계대안과 관리대안을 추가하여 설계-운영-평가가 연계되도록 하였다. 또한 운영 중 사고의 발생확률과 평가결과의 심각성에 따라 운영중 사고에 대한 분류기준을 제안하여 처분시설 운영 중 대표 사고시나리오에 대한 정당성을 확보하였다. 본 논문의 개선된 평가체계를 우리나라의 2단계 중 저준위 방사성폐기물 표층처분시설에 대한 처분시설 운영 중 사고분석의 사례에 대해 적용하였다.
