The book examines best practices and recent trends in improving nuclear safety and reducing the negative environmental impacts of nuclear waste. With a strong emphasis on regulatory requirements, this reference is essential for designing new integrated waste management practices, using lessons learned from historical and current practices.Divided into three key parts, Part One introduces the reader to the safety and environmental impacts of the nuclear industry and the historical and current nuclear waste management practices. Part Two reviews recent technological and methodological approaches to enhancing safety, as well as reducing the environmental impacts of both individual processes and integrated facilities. Topics covered include spent fuel and radioactive waste management, legacy waste management, remediation, and decommissioning. Part Three considers some prospective for the safe management of waste from innovative reactors, and wastes that contain emerging contaminants, including waste recycling opportunities.

Défraîchis, moisis, usés, cassés, abîmés, ébréchés, les déchets sont la face cachée de nos sociétés de (sur)consommation qui privilégient le neuf et le clinquant. Pourtant, étudier nos représentations des immondices et analyser les réactions qu'elles suscitent nous apprend beaucoup sur nous-mêmes et sur le fonctionnement de nos sociétés. Dans un contexte de crise écologique, l'analyse philosophique des déchets dépasse l'approche symbolique pour mettre en lumière les aspects normatifs de la question du traitement physique des rebuts, habituellement circonscrite au seul domaine technique.En s'appuyant sur une documentation pluridisciplinaire, l'auteure soumet notre gestion des déchets à un examen approfondi portant sur ses enjeux éthiques, sociaux et politiques afin d'envisager des pratiques détritiques plus justes socialement et écologiquement, soucieuses de tisser de nouvelles alliances avec la nature.
