ANS-40.37-1993, Mobile Radioactive Waste Processing Systems
Wanted: Working Group Chair
Scope: This standard sets forth design, fabrication, and performance recommendations and requirements for Mobile Low-Level Radioactive Waste Processing (MRWP) systems (including components) for nuclear facilities. The purpose of this standard is to provide guidance to ensure that the MRWP systems are designed, fabricated, installed, and operated in a manner commensurate with the need to protect the health and safety of the public and plant personnel.
ANS-57.1-1992; R1998, Design Requirements for LWR Fuel Handling Systems
Wanted: Working Group Chair
Scope: This standard sets forth the required functions of fuel handling systems at light water reactor nuclear power plants. It provides minimum design requirements for equipment and tools to handle nuclear fuel and control components safely.
ANS-57.5-1996, Light Water Reactors Fuel Assembly Mechanical Design and Evaluation
Wanted: Working Group Chair
Scope: This standard sets forth a series of design conditions and functional requirements for the design of fuel assemblies for light water cooled commercial power reactors. It includes specific requirements for design, as well as design criteria to ensure adequate fuel assembly performance. The standard establishes a procedure for performing an evaluation of the mechanical design of fuel assemblies. It does not address the various aspects of neutronic or thermal-hydraulic performance except where these factors impose loads or constraints on the mechanical design of the fuel assemblies.
ANS-57.7-1988; R1997, Design Criteria for an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (Water Pool Type)
Wanted: Working Group Chair
Scope: This standard provides design criteria for systems and equipment of a facility for the receipt and storage of spent fuel from light water reactors. It contains requirements for the design of major buildings and structures including the shipping cask unloading and spent fuel storage pools, cask decontamination, unloading and loading areas, and the surrounding buildings which contain radwaste treatment, heating, ventilation and air conditioning, and other auxiliary systems. It contains requirements and recommendations for spent fuel storage racks, special equipment and area layout configurations, the pool structure and its integrity, pool water cleanup, ventilation, residual heat removal, radiation monitoring, fuel handling equipment, cask handling equipment, prevention of criticality, radwaste control and monitoring systems, quality assurance requirements, materials accountability, and physical security.
Such an installation may be independent of both a nuclear power station and a reprocessing facility or located adjacent to any of these facilities in order to share selected support systems. Support systems shall not include a direct means of transferring fuel assemblies from the nuclear facility to the installation.
ANS-57.9-1992; R2000, Design Criteria for an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (Dry Type)
Wanted: Working Group Chair
Scope: This standard is intended to be used by the owner and operator of a dry storage-type independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) in specifying the design requirements and by the designer in meeting the minimum requirements of such installations.
The standard includes requirements for the following: the design of major buildings and structures, shipping cask unloading and handling facilities, cask decontamination, loading and unloading areas, spent fuel storage areas and racks, fuel handling equipment, radiation shielding, special equipment and area layout configurations, air or gas quality, storage area integrity, air or gas cleanup, fuel inspection, ventilation, residual heat removal, radiation monitoring, prevention of criticality, radwaste control and monitoring systems, provisions to facilitate decommissioning, quality assurance, materials accountability, and physical security.
This standard continues the set of American National Standards on spent fuel storage. Similar standards are:
(1) Design Requirements for Light Water Reactor Spent Fuel Storage Facilities at Nuclear Power Plants, ANSI/ANS-57.2-1983. (2) Design Criteria for an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (Water Pool Type), ANSI/ANS-57.7-1988. (3) Guidelines for Establishing Site-Related Parameters for Site Selection and Design of an independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (Water Pool Type), ANSI/ANS-2.19-1988(R1990); and (4) Design Criteria for Consolidation of LWR Spent Fuel, ANSI/ANS-57.10-1987.
