Les accidents de réacteurs nucléaires
Author: MARGUET Serge
Publisher: Lavoisier
ISBN: 2743064293
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Le but de cet ouvrage est de faire partager des événements peu connus à un large public peu au fait de cette technologie tout en étant, scientifiquement et historiquement, rigoureusement exact. Une information scientifique de qualité est nécessaire dans un domaine aussi complexe que le nucléaire, au risque de produire des vérités creuses, voire même des contre-vérités. Les accidents de réacteurs nucléaires présente une analyse historique et scientifique objective des accidents de réacteurs significatifs depuis le début du nucléaire : l'incendie de Windscale et de Vandellos, l'excursion de puissance du SL-1, la fusion partielle des réacteurs Saint-Laurent et EBR-2, la perte du réacteur de TMI-2 et l'explosion de Tchernobyl pour finir par la récente affaire de Fukushima et ses développements les plus récents. Le déroulement des accidents et leurs conséquences à la fois techniques et humaines sont présentés objectivement, sans dédouaner le nucléaire de ses responsabilités. Le texte est rédigé de manière à ce qu'un non-spécialiste puisse aborder progressivement des aspects pourtant hautement techniques, habituellement réservés aux physiciens et présente des éléments rarement, voire jamais développés, dans la presse grand-public. Cet ouvrage est illustré de photographies et de schémas techniques qui agrémentent la lecture et aident activement à la compréhension de ces accidents.

Military Nuclear Accidents
Author: Jean-Claude Amiard
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119572509
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
The use of atomic energy for military purposes has given rise to a variety of nuclear accidents from the outset. This applies to all levels of use: from the manufacture of weapons to their commissioning. This book provides an overview of the potential impact of such accidents. The prospective consequences of local and global nuclear war are detailed. Similarly, for each accident, the environmental, ecological, health and socio-economic consequences are reviewed. The contamination of the environment and its fauna and flora is detailed and the effects of ionizing radiation are reported. The same is provided for human populations and the adverse effects on the health and physical and mental states of the populations concerned. The economic cost of accidents is also evaluated. The research presented in this book is based on scientifically recognized publications, and reports from the military forces of the various countries concerned and from the national and international organizations competent in this field (IAEA, WHO, UNSCEAR, IRSN, ICPR, etc.).

Nuclear Accidents
Author: Jean-Claude Amiard
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1786303353
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
Detailing the estimation and perception of nuclear risk, this book follows military and civilian nuclear accidents, plus the systems put in place by national and international authorities for recording and analyzing feedback. Prevention and anticipation being the best defenses against a nuclear accident, the authorities have also categorized the different types of accidents, and are doing research to better understand and control them. In light of this, this book shows how the authorities take practical measures to protect neighboring populations and limit radioactive contamination of the environment. Frances experience in this arena is well-documented and a chapter of this book is devoted to the fight against terrorist attacks in the nuclear field. Nuclear Accidents is based on scientifically-recognized publications, as well as on reports from the various countries concerned, and the national and international organizations competent in this field (IAEA, WHO, UNSCEAR, IRSN, etc.).

Industrial and Medical Nuclear Accidents
Author: Jean-Claude Amiard
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1786303345
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
The peaceful use of atomic energy has given rise to a variety of nuclear accidents from the start. This concerns all forms of use, industrial and medical. For each accident, Industrial and Medical Nuclear Accidents details the contamination of the environment, flora and fauna, and quantifies the effects of ionizing radiation. The book also examines the adverse effects on the health, both physical and mental, of the human populations concerned. The monetary cost is also evaluated. The research presented in this book is based on scientifically recognized publications and on the reports of national and international organizations competent in this field (IAEA, WHO, UNSCEAR, IRSN, etc.). The book contains chapters devoted to the most recent accidents (Chernobyl and Fukushima), with a large body of institutional and academic literature.

Disarmament and Decommissioning in the Nuclear Domain
Author: Jean-Claude Amiard
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1786307219
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Following the acquisition of the atomic bomb by five states, the United Nations began drafting several treaties to limit nuclear proliferation. These efforts failed, as four more states also acquired nuclear weapons. In a similar vein, an attempt to limit atomic weapons - primarily within the two superpowers - was initiated. While the number of weapons has decreased, the new bombs now being manufactured are more powerful and more precise, negating any reduction in numbers. In the field of civil nuclear use, all nuclear facilities (reactors, factories, etc.) have a limited lifespan. Once a plant is permanently shut down, these facilities must be decommissioned and dismantled. These operations are difficult, time-consuming and costly. In addition, decommissioning generates large volumes of radioactive waste of various categories, including long-lived and high-activity waste. Risks to the environment and to health are not negligible during decommissioning. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) have produced numerous publications with recommendations. Each state has its own decommissioning strategy (immediate or delayed) and final plan for the site - whether it be returning it to greenfield status or obtaining a nuclear site license with centuries-long monitoring.
