Abstract
An international Iodine workshop co-organized by the
French "Institut de Radioprotection et de Sûreté
Nucléaire", the Nuclear Energy Agency of the OECD, the
Technical Area 2 "SARNET" of NUGENIA and the European
Commission through the Joint Research Centre (Petten) was
held in Marseille (France) from March 30 to April 1,
2015.
The scope and objectives of the workshop were to:
" review and discuss the outcomes of recently concluded
and on-going national and international research
programmes related to iodine and ruthenium behaviour
during Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) accidents including
Design Basis Accident (DBA) and Beyond Design Basis
Accident (BDBA);
" review and discuss the associated progress made in
related modelling in NPP accidents;
" review and discuss the implications for source term
evaluations and assessment of accident management
measures (for radiological impact reduction through,
e.g., Filtered Containment Venting System (FCVS)
implementation);
" identify safety-significant issues in the field not yet
sufficiently covered that would induce gaps or potential
weaknesses in accident analysis and assessment of
accident management measures, including for the long-term
phases of an accident;
" share source-term evaluation results and related
uncertainties assessments;
" contribute to the dissemination of knowledge gained in
the field and promote the best use of knowledge updates
for accident analysis and management.
The present paper summarizes the main conclusions and
recommendations of the workshop regarding source term
research and its implementation in tools supporting
accident analysis and management including emergency
response.
