'Chemistry of Nuclear Fuel Cycle', Paris, France
14 January 2013 - 14 January 2013
France
The 'Chemistry of Nuclear Fuel Cycle' course will be held from 14 to 25 January 2013 in Paris, France.
The lack of trained nuclear chemical specialists has been identified in all branches of the nuclear sector and other areas where such skills are required, such as radiopharmacy, nuclear medicine, radiation protection, radioecology, and many others. Retraining general chemistry graduates is one of the options for mitigating this problem.
The European project CINCH is an FP7 project coming under the EURATOM programme. It aims to coordinate nuclear chemistry education and training in Europe. The project includes the creation of a long-term EURATOM Fission Training Scheme (EFTS) providing a common basis to the fragmented activities in this field. This would move the education and training in nuclear chemistry to a quantitatively new level.
This course aims to provide a global overview of the chemistry and physics necessary at the different stages of the fuel cycle, from the front-end to the back-end. In addition participants should acquire basic knowledge in decommissioning of nuclear facilities and in radiological protection.For further information, please visit:
