Assessment of the Nuclear Risk in Europe - A case Study in the Almaraz NPP, Spain
A study performed in the framework of a collaboration agreement between the EC JRC and CIEMAT
The uncontrolled release of radionuclides in the atmosphere caused by a nuclear or radiological accident may affect large areas, having an effect, not only on public health, but also on the economy because of the restrictions on food production and therefore, the way of life of the affected population.
The elaboration of risk maps, as tools to identify and categorise the affected areas in terms of radiological impact to population, are very useful in Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans, as they allow to prioritise where the application of remediation techniques is necessary. The ANURE (Assessment of the NUclear Risk in Europe - A Case Study in the Almaraz Nuclear Power Plant, Spain) Project aims at developing a methodology to elaborate this kind of risk maps, integrating all the factors previously considered, in order to identify those areas of most concern. The European Commission Directorate General Joint Research Centre (EC/DG JRC) and the Centro de Investigaciones Energéticas Medioambientales y Tecnológicas (CIEMAT) led this project.
