| Description |
English: A small part of the interim storage facility for German highly radioactive nuclear waste near Gorleben (district Lüchow-Dannenberg). The aboveground hall (left) is the target of annual "Castor" transports with highly radioactive nuclear waste, mostly coming from the reprocessing plant at La Hague, France. The special containers are placed in the building and will remain there at first several decades.
The twelfth "Castor" transport since 1995, consisting of eleven other nuclear waste containers, has reached Gorleben in November 2010. This increased the number of containers at the intermediate storage to 102. The transport was accompanied by massive protests of the local population and anti-nuclear activists from all over Germany, so it had to be enforced by 21,000 police officers. The tower/chimney on the right belongs to the adjacent so-called pilot conditioning plant. The future use of this system is the testing and development of procedures to make the high-level radioactive waste "fit for final storage"...Deutsch: Blick auf einen kleinen Ausschnitt des Zwischenlagers Gorleben für hochradioaktiven deutschen Atommüll. Die oberirdische Halle (links) ist das Ziel der meist jährlich stattfindenden "Castor"-Transporte hochradioaktiven Atommülls insbesondere aus der Wiederaufbereitungsanlage im französischen La Hague. Die Spezialbehälter werden in dem Gebäude aufgestellt und sollen dort zunächst mehrere Jahrzehnte verbleiben.
Der zwölfte "Castor"-Transport seit 1995, bestehend aus elf weiteren Atommüllcontainern, erreichte im November 2010 unter massiven Protesten der Bevölkerung und von Atomkraftgegnern aus ganz Deutschland die Lagerhalle. Dieser Transport musste von 21.000 Polizisten durchgesetzt werden. Dadurch erhöhte sich die Anzahl der hier zwischengelagerten Container auf jetzt 102 Stück. Der Turm/Schornstein rechts gehört bereits zur benachbarten sogenannten Pilot-Konditionierungsanlage. Mit dieser sollen künftig Umverpackungsverfahren entwickelt und erprobt werden, um den hochradioaktiven Müll "endlagerfähig" zu machen... |
