EPR UK N° NESH-G/2008/en/0123 REV. A PAGE 171 / 257 11 WASTE TREATMENT BUILDING 11.1 Introduction The WTB is the single interface for the processing of all radioactive operational waste materials that will be generated by the operation of the UK EPR. The building is designed to perform all waste management functions to house the treatment and conditioning systems that are necessary to meet the utility and regulatory baseline. As a result of this the building will accommodate a wide variety of complex functions for safe handling, treatment, conditioning, buffer storage, packaging and monitoring of wastes. The building layout and systems provide the following key waste management functions: 1. Treatment of radioactive wastewater and effluent; 2. Treatment of solid waste; 3. Conditioning of solid / liquid waste. As such it provides the storage capabilities for incoming raw waste (liquid /solid) to be treated as well as the buffer space needed prior to shipping of conditioned wastes for intermediate storage or transfer to the off-site disposal location. The liquid and solid waste treatment and conditioning systems provide the capability to minimise the interim storage and disposal volumes while satisfying the storage and disposal requirements. In addition the handling and transportation requirements for the waste packages are met. Following monitoring, clean liquids will be discharged in accordance with the discharge authorisation issued under the RSA 93 and decontaminated parts are measured and released off-site as the material exempt from regulatory control limits are met. In addition the WTB provides all functions required for the protection and safe handling of radioactive material. As such it is designated a controlled area under the Ionising Radiation Regulations (1999) and incorporates measures to ensure that the doses received by operators are reduced in accordance with the requirements of these regulations. The raw waste volumes expected during normal operations and outages will determine the sizing of the treatment systems. To allow maximum flexibility in the waste treatment and conditioning techniques the equipment used will be mobile, for example skid mounted units and modular in its construction where possible.
