Decommissioning and Waste Management Considerations for Fusion Facilities : Deuterium-Tritium Toroidal Magnetic Confinement Facilities (IAEA Tecdoc Series No.)

Experimental fusion facilities are integral to advancing fusion research and informing the design of future power-producing plants. As some of these facilities enter decommissioning, early experience is being gained in dismantling activated components and managing radioactive waste, including tritiated materials. This emerging body of experience provides an important foundation for developing the technical methodologies and waste management strategies that will be required for future facilities, where higher neutron fluences and larger tritium inventories are expected. This publication is intended for fusion researchers and engineers actively involved in radioactive waste management for fusion, as well as decommissioning experts with practical experience and regulatory authorities.
