Safety and environment studies for a European DEMO design concept
Abstract
A safety approach is established for EU DEMO including a safety classification scheme. Accident analyses reveal the need for a large expansion volume with helium cooling. Minimization of radioactive inventories is being achieved in the DEMO design concepts. Detritiation and recycling techniques expect to reduce the radioactive waste burden.
