这项研究提供了一个概念和基本方向，以开发一个URL（地下研究实验室）计划，建立在韩国的深层地质处置系统的性能和安全。深部地质处置是乏核燃料最终处置的首选方法之一。放射性废物处理先进国家已形成了适合本国社会和环境条件的处理概念，并已应用于商业项目。深层地质处置系统是一个多屏障系统，通常由工程屏障和自然屏障组成。一个处置设施及其所在环境可以依赖于一个必要的封闭和隔离，其时间跨度设想为几千年至几万年。在处置方案的商业阶段，不允许使用未经验证和证明系统性能和安全性的处置系统。确认处置系统性能和安全的所有问题包括调查、分析、评估、设计、施工、运营和关闭，从规划到关闭深地质处置库。先进国家执行RD&D（研究、开发和示范）计划，使用位于其境内首选岩石区域的URL设施来验证处置系统的性能和安全性。URL方案的结果和过程有助于构建选址技术标准和准则以及最终处置场的适宜性和安全评估。此外，URL计划还在促进公众、监管机构和专家等利益相关者对深层地质处置系统的科学理解方面发挥了决定性作用。
This study gives a conceptual and basic direction to develop a URL (underground research laboratory) program for establishing the performance and safety of a deep geological disposal system in Korea. The concept of deep geological disposal is one of the preferred methodologies for the final disposal of spent nuclear fuel (SNF). Advanced countries with radioactive waste disposal have developed their own disposal concepts reasonable to their social and environmental conditions and applied to their com-mercial projects. Deep geological disposal system is a multi-barrier system generally consisting of an engineered barrier and natural barrier. A disposal facility and its host environment can be relied on a necessary containment and isolation over timescales envisaged as several to tens of thousands of years. A disposal system is not allowed in the commercial stage of the disposal program without a validation and demonstration of the performance and safety of the system. All issues confirming performance and safety of a disposal system include investigation, analysis, assessment, design, construction, operation and closure from planning to closure of the deep geological repository. Advanced countries perform RD&D (research, development & demonstration) programs to validate the performance and safety of a disposal system using a URL facility located at the preferred rock area within their own territories. The results and processes from the URL program contribute to construct technical criteria and guidelines for site selection as well as suitability and safety assessment of the final disposal site. Furthermore, the URL program also plays a decisive role in promoting scientific understanding of the deep geological disposal system for stakeholders, such as the public, regulator, and experts.
