Abstract

Like other nuclear countries, Lithuania is facing the problem of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) disposal from RBMK11“RBMK†is a Russian acronym for “Channelized Large Power Reactor†.-1500 type reactors at the Ignalina NPP (~22,000 of the SNF assemblies). The application of probabilistic and deterministic methods for uncertainty assessment and important parameter ranking is of high importance in order to build confidence in the assessment results on radionuclide migration and indicates directions for further uncertainty reduction.
