Ep.65 Discussion about Nuclear Waste storage with Jarkko Stenfors from Posiva Part 1
Manage episode 445691882 series 3608982
In this first part of the episode we are discussing about Posiva, how the nuclear waste is generated in the power plants and its short term storage. Then we start the discussion about Posiva's plans for long term storage in their underground facilities in Olkiluoto. In there the nuclear waste is transferred from the short term storage to copper canisters that will then be welded shut and moved to the final resting place over 400 meters underground.
In the next part we are discussing what happens to the canisters after they are closed and about all the testing done in the last 20 years by Posiva.
