Probabilistic Risk

The events at the Fukushima nuclear power station drew attention to the need for consideration of risks from multiple nuclear reactor units co-located at a site. As a result, considerable international interests and research efforts have been dedicated to addressing the multi-unit risks over the past few years. This paper presents a review of the state-of-the-art multi-unit probabilistic risk assessment (MUPRA) of nuclear power plants. The concept of MUPRA is briefly presented and the relevant activities to address and develop methodologies are summarized including workshops, proceedings, projects and case studies. The paper presents different facets of MUPRA research, including multi-unit event, MUPRA modeling and site-based risk metric. The paper also identifies existing gaps and the need for future research.

This work is aimed at addressing attention to the situation of contaminated sites and emphasizing importance and need for their rehabilitation. The study presents the experience gained by European countries evaluating contaminated sites and rehabilitation framework. A model of assessing contaminated sites in Lithuania consisting of two main stages – preliminary and detailed investigation has been developed. The first one is used for collecting preliminary information on the contaminated site and for evaluating the need for detailed analysis. The second is subjected to a comprehensive risk assessment of the site shifting focus on the environment and human health. The model for evaluating contaminated sites involves organic chemical materials and metals. Risk assessment depends on the sensitivity of a site to contamination. Equations for establishing the level of contamination involve the content of soil organic matter and clay. Correction coefficients used for calculating the level of contamination have been based on statistical analysis and experience gained by the EU countries.
