Conference Service Mandl

abstract: The conference is a forum for the discussion of the scientific, technical, social and regulatory aspects of the “back end” of the nuclear fuel cycle. These issues include waste generation, transportation, storage, treatment, disposal, and associated aspects (such as facility remediation, regulation, and stakeholder involvement). The conference is an opportunity for an exchange of information on current topics of interest among the international participants in nuclear-waste activities. The conference will appeal to an international audience as an opportunity to share information across programmatic, disciplinary, and international boundaries. Intended participants and audiences include personnel working on all aspects of irradiated fuel and HLW management such as: geologic waste-disposal systems, facility remediation systems, the governmental and private organizations using these systems, regulators, and those involved in scientific and societal issues related to policy questions for these systems. Conference participants are encouraged to focus their submissions (either as oral or poster presentations) on the theme of this conference.

abstract: North American industry has employed major solvent-extraction processes to support a wide range of operations including but not limited to chemical, metallurgical and nuclear applications. In recognition of these activities, ISEC 1977 and ISEC 1984 were hosted in Toronto, Canada and Denver, Colorado, USA.

After 24 years, it is fitting that the leaders in solvent-extraction be hosted once again on this continent for the 18th International Solvent Extraction Conference, to be held in Tucson, Arizona from September 15 to 19, 2008.

abstract: FLINS, an acronym for Fuzzy Logic and Intelligent Technologies in Nuclear Science, is a well-established international research forum to advance the theory and applications of computational intelligence for applied research in general and for complex engineering and decision support systems in particular. The principal mission of FLINS is bridging the gap between machine intelligence and real complex systems via joint research between Universities and international research institutions, by encouraging interdisciplinary research and bringing multi-discipline researchers together.

abstract: The conference is directed at a broad range of experts in the area of nuclear safety, including professionals from the different disciplines involved in the safety of nuclear power plants, installations in other parts of the fuel cycle, and research reactors. It is aimed at professionals coming from the research organisations, universities, vendors, operators, regulatory bodies as well as policy makers. Top level representatives of the Countries that are constructing new nuclear power plants are invited. Regulators of all individual Countries with nuclear programme are expected to contribute the Conference.

abstract: The Canadian Nuclear Society (CNS) is pleased announce the Tenth International Conference on CANDU Fuel, to be held at the Delta Ottawa Hotel and Suites, Ottawa, Ontario, 2008 October 5-8. Canada’s capital shall play host to this premier event for CANDU Fuel. This conference provides the best forum for CANDU Fuel experts from around the world to share experience, present innovations, discus research, renew old acquaintances and network with their peers. Based on the success of its predecessors, the 10th conference will maintain a similar structure and format. The call for papers will be announced within the next few months. The disciplines will include, but are not limited to, fuel cycles, manufacturing, licensing, performance, modelling, and fuel properties. Registration forms are available at www.cns-snc.ca/fuel2008.html.

abstract: Pacific Basin Nuclear Conferences (PBNCs) are organized under the auspices of the Pacific Nuclear Council (PNC), a non-governmental organization that was established in 1988 to advance nuclear science and technology in the Pacific Basin.

abstract: KNS, AESJ, CNS, ENS and ANS are jointly organizing the 2008 Water Reactor Fuel Performance Meeting following the successful International LWR Fuel Performance Meeting held during September 30 - October 3, 2007 in San Francisco , USA . Merging three premier nuclear fuel design and performance meetings: the ANS LWR Fuel Performance Meeting, the ENS TopFuel, and ASIAN Water Reactor Fuel Performance Meeting (WRFPM) created this international meeting. The meeting will be held annually on a tri-annual rotational basis in USA , Europe, and Asia .

The technical scope of the meeting includes all aspects of nuclear fuel from fuel rod to core design as well as performance experience in commercial and test reactors. The meeting excludes front end and back end fuel issues; however, it covers all front and/or back issues that impact fuel designs and performance. Due to the time limitation and broad scope of the meeting, papers are selected competitively and based on peer review in a two-

abstract: 2008 Joint Symposium on Molten Salts aims to bring together chemists and engineers from academics and industry in a productive, manageable ambience for molten salts and ionic liquids. The scope of the symposium ranges from advanced preparation techniques to resulting new properties and industrial applications.

abstract: The Euratom Treaty celebrated its 50th birthday in March 2007. One of the core tasks of the Treaty is to promote research and ensure dissemination of scientific and technical knowledge for the peaceful use of nuclear energy. Research on radioactive waste has been a principal domain of activity, and remains so within the 7th Euratom Framework Programme (2007-2011).

abstract: Saudi Arabia's water and power industry represents a challenge on a scale unknown anywhere else in the world and the Saudi Arabian government has undertaken an ambitious programme of reforms in this sector.

Building on last year's success, SWPF 2008 is dedicated to companies and investors aiming to capitalise on additional 30 GW of power generating capacity targeted by the Saudi Arabia's Water and Electricity Ministry for 2020. This figure will double the current installed capacity of 29.1 GW at a cost of an estimated US $ 90-100 Billion. In addition, Saudi Arabia's state-owned Saline Water Conversion Corp. (SWCC) has estimated that through 2020, the country will need to spend US $ 50 Billion on water projects, many integrated with new power generation capacity, in order to meet the Kingdom's equally rapidly growing water demand.

abstract: The general aim of EUROSAFE is to contribute to fostering the convergence of technical nuclear safety practices in a broad European context.

abstract: In 1991, the IAEA organized an International Conference on the Safety of Nuclear Power: Strategy for the Future. Recommendations from that conference prompted actions in subsequent years that advanced the safety of nuclear installations worldwide, and included the establishment of the Convention on Nuclear Safety, which entered into force in October 1996.

In 1998, the IAEA sponsored an International Conference on Topical Issues in Nuclear, Radiation and Radioactive Waste Safety. In response to the concerns identified and the recommendations provided by the conference, actions were taken to improve the monitoring of safety by: developing performance indicators; furthering the use of probabilistic safety insights to complement and help optimize the prescriptive nature of regulations in the field of radiation protection and addressing actions needed to ensure the future availability of competent professionals.

abstract: We invite all radiation researchers and professionals, scientific community and general public to attend and to participate in this scientific gathering, organized by members of the Radiobiology group of the Department of Radiological Protection and Nuclear Safety of the Portuguese Nuclear and Technological Institute.
