MODULE “PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL” RADIATION PROTECTION SAFE DECOMMISSIONING OF NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”
2
2 CONTENTS 1. Radiation protection program 2. Radiation protection measures during decommissioning
3
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”3 TRAINING OBJECTIVES Upon completion of training trainees should be able to: Describe the programme for radiation protection during decommissioning. Describe the protective measures (technical and organizational) during the implementation of the activities. Classify the types and periodicity of radiation control. List the measures for radiation protection improvement.
4
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”4 RADIATION PROTECTION Use of protective equipment for shielding Availability of sufficient qualified staff occupied with radiation protection Train decommissioning staff on needed skills, qualification and radiation protection methods Organizational housekeeping experience Division of reactor building into zones (areas) Provision of appropriate system allowing to maintain workers and public doses as low as reasonably achievable Document all radiation protection measures and results of surveys
5
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”5 CONTENTS OF CONCEPT AND RADIATION PROTECTION PROGRAMS Measures to prevent exceeding of exposure doses Division of facility into zones (areas) Expected exposure evaluation Radiation control and facility site and environment investigation Monitoring and documenting of measurement results List of protective means and equipment to decrease ionizing radiation impact List of technical means to measure radiation parameters Methods and means to decontaminate equipment and constructions Measures for RAW control and management Specific requirement for quality assurance Staff training
6
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”6 KNPP RADIATION PROTECTION POLICY Basic Norms for Radiation Protection and BSS-115 of IAEA The ALARA principle Obligations of the workers Control in zones (areas) of ionizing radiation Appropriate organizational structure
7
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”7 RADIATION PROTECTION OBJECTIVES To maintain minimum but reasonably achieved level of individual and collective dose staff and population To perform needed control of radioactive source To minimize radioactively contaminated surfaces, equipment and staff To minimize radioactive waste generation
8
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”8 RADIATION PROTECTION ORGANIZATION Radiation protection policy Structures for: Staff dosimetric control; Operative assurance of radiation protection; Environment monitoring. Radiation protection instructions Procedures and programs for radiation protection activities Records and archive of activities for radiation protection assurance
9
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”9 SPECIAL-PURPOSE INDICATORS FOR RADIATION PROTECTION ASSESSMENT Annual collective dose (Man.mSv), outage or main activities The highest annual individual dose Number of individuals who exceeded the administrative limit Number of violations of radiation protection rules
10
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”10 ORGANIZATIONAL AND TECHNICAL MEASURES TO ENSURE RADIATION PROTECTION Sanitary places including hot shower Sanitary locks Control and marking of radioactive contaminated zones (areas), rooms Fencing RAW control Supplementary special protective clothing Decontamination of special clothing and shoes Decontamination of floors and walls Sanitary and hygienic rules
11
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”11 EXTERNAL RADIATION INDIVIDUAL DOSE MINIMIZATION Control of current radiological conditions at the work place Planning of different activities Training and practice of workers with the help of models Use of procedures Remote control equipment is used Stay in rooms of higher level ionizing radiation is within permissible limits Control of occupational doses
12
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”12 MINIMIZATION OF RADIONUCLIDE INHALATION Experience of workers, good understanding of the conditions, organization and qualified management of the works Use of protective clothing covering the whole body; protection of respiratory organs Continuous operation of ventilation system during implementation of works Dust equipment in operation (if needed), with aerosol filters Control of current concentration of radioactive aerosols in the air and measurement of summary beta and gamma activity
13
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”13 LIMITATION OF CONTAMINATION SPREADING Sanitary places prior to go into restricted area Fencing and tagging of work place and controlled area Storage and handling of RAW upon packing and/or dumping in containers
14
Project BG/04/B/F/PP-166005, Programme “Leonardo da Vinci”14 INDIVIDUAL PROTECTIVE MEANS Standard special clothing: Cotton underwear and socks; Cotton overall and a cap; Shoes. Additional special clothing: Gloves – made of latex or fabric; Rubber impregnated overall for work with chemicals and liquid RAW of high activity; Rubber overshoes - galoshes; Filter mask.
15
