Towards Increased Coordination of R&D Activities for Decommissioning
Christine Georges, CEA , France

• Various dismantling techniques at the level of industrial maturity
• But still specific challenges ahead regarding safety, environmental impacts, efficiency and cost-effectiveness for: In situ and waste investigations and
characterization before, during and after dismantling
Decontamination and site release Segmentation and handling , IT tools for simulation of scenarios and data
management, waste management in an holistic approach
(treatment, conditioning and packaging, before disposal).

Context of “SHARE” / 1: Still needs for R&D in D&ER
On one hand: • Increasing difficulties for Individual countries to justify expenditures on new developments •Reluctance to use innovative technologies and search for approved technologies to
minimize risks On the other hand: • Significant redundancy in current R&D programmes for Decommissioning in different
countries • Lot of exchanges between operators through IAEA/OCDE or bilateral collaboration
agreement but very few projects in common in D&ER before 2017
3
Incentives to SHARE initiative: • Public research should provide solutions to D&ER challenges • Promotion and organization at multinational level of the co-
financing of R&D developments in Decommissioning by actors with common objectives is a Necessity
Context of “SHARE” / 2: More impulse needed to use results of R&D
Implementation of « SHARE » Initiative – Scope & expected impact
4
Working group within IAEA International Decommissioning Network (IDN) created in November 2016 as an output of Madrid conference
Scope: To strengthen networking and complementarity between national research programmes for decommissioning: Promotion for greater coordination of research Identification of R&I needs Identification of innovative techniques and methods where there is a clear benefit from multiparty implementation Proposal of possible funding schemes for collaborative projects addressing those needs and development of a framework for coordination of the implementation of selected projects
Decision to propose a project under EURATOM Research and Training Programme Horizon 2020 as an Initial step: 2 years Coordination and Support Action (CSA)

Implementation of « share » initiative – Proposal to Euratom H2020

Stakeholders to be defined (e.g. national Technical Support Organizations, representatives of different types of facilities requiring decommissioning, etc. ) Questionnaires to stakeholders and seminars to be defined Preparatory work Support to future coordination of R&I
efforts: Benchmarking on financial and organizational models
Expected Impact: • A roadmap for decommissioning research providing
guidance to stakeholders on the steps needed during the next 10-15 years in the following fields: Characterization Decontamination & Remediation Dismantling techniques Advanced information technologies Waste treatment, conditioning and packaging
