Materials and waste management in decommissioning

In the framework of European ELINDER (European project in Learning Initiative for Nuclear Decommissioning and Environmental Remediation), the INSTN and the European Commission Joint Research Center (JRC) are jointly organizing the International course.

Those topics will be presented:
