Abstract
On their way to the waste disposal site, waste transporters can become involved in accidents. In certain circumstances the waste containers may not be able to withstand the accident forces, thus causing radioactive material to be released into the environment. Depending on the radioactive materials held in the waste containers concerned and the amount released into the environment, the radiological consequences — such as radiation exposure of individuals and contamination of the biosphere — vary over a wide range.
