According to the world average generation levels, the nuclear power generation is the third-largest energy generation form following the thermal and hydroelectric ones. Among all the operating nuclear generation, the type of the PWR has occupied more than 50%. The paper constructed three most commonly used dynamic PWR neutron models, which are six-groups delayed, single-group delayed and linearized neutron model, and made a detail analysis of those different models. An investigation of the different errors among the models under different perturbations is taken by simulation and a standard for the simplification of the models had been proposed, which can provide a reference for the selection of the future PWR neutron dynamic model.

The growing importance of finding shared solutions for countries with small arisings of long-lived wastes from nuclear power generation has been increasingly recognised over the last few years. In this paper, we take a systematic look at recent developments focusing in turn on: • international initiatives (IAEA); • regional initiatives the European Union (EU); • national positions for in 3 categories of countries: • those participating in the Arius association that was founded explicitly to promote the multinational concept; • those with specific interests in shared solutions; • those that might consider hosting a repository; • those with laws or policies requiring national disposal. Multinational concepts continue to face challenges that are more difficult than for national programmes. Nevertheless, progress to date indicates that the nuclear communities of the world may well be on the way to optimising radioactive waste management on a global scale.
