Abstract: Laboratory analysis were performed for radiological characterization of the underground pipes connecting the 30 m3 buffer tank of liquid effluents belonging to the Nuclear Reactor VVR-S to the 300 m3 tanks from the IFIN-HH Radioactive Waste Treatment Station.
Measurements for the assessment of the contaminants inside of the pipelines were done using high resolution gamma-ray spectrometry, with the detector placed inside of the pipe. Due to the specific measurement geometry, experimental efficiency calibration was not possible; therefore the peak efficiency curve was obtained by Monte Carlo simulation using GESPECOR software.
