Development and Improvement of Thermodynamic Understanding for use in Nuclear Waste Disposal Safety Case
DITUSC targets the consolidation and improvement of the knowledge to predict processes over long timescales in key fields for geological disposal of radioactive waste. Beyond the need to identify, critically assess and eventually define strategies to close existing safety-relevant data gaps and maintaining the know-how in the area of thermodynamics, this WP supports present and future capabilities for the reliable use of thermodynamic model calculations for the performance evaluation of various disposal configurations, for Safety Analyses and the development of the Safety Case.
Tuesday 18th, November 2025 will be dedicated to the 1st Annual Meeting restricted to Partners, Associated Partners and members of the End-User Group of WP DITUSC
Wednesday 19th and Thursday 20th, November 2025 will be dedicated to (i) Feedback on the DITUSC Surveys START and SAFE; (ii) Review of WP achievements; (iii) Identification and prioritization of knowledge gaps and current limitations of use in safety case. These two days will be opened to all participants.
