PIEAS Short Course: Key Issues in Nuclear Science and Technology

Published by Editorial Staff on

Department of Nuclear Engineering, Pakistan Institute of Engineering & Applied Sciences (PIEAS), Islamabad is organizing a short course for young scientists and engineers entitled “Key Issues in Nuclear Science and Technology” during October 13-22, 2014 at Islamabad, Pakistan.

PIEAS Short Course Key Issues in Nuclear Science and Technology

Introduction to Course

Pakistan is among the few developing countries that are using nuclear technology for power generation. Now, the country has three operational and two under construction nuclear power plants. It has experience and infrastructure for nuclear power planning, conducting site selection studies, nuclear fuel processing, plant operation, plant life extension and manufacturing of some spare parts of nuclear power plants. Safety remains on the top in nuclear power program of Pakistan.

The country has more than four decades of safe operational experience even without the vendor support for the first nuclear power plant. Lessons have been learnt from the
accidents at Chernobyl and Fukushima nuclear power plants to enhance safety of the existing and future nuclear power plants and preparedness for emergency caused by such disasters. This training course touches upon all components of Pakistan’s nuclear power program.

Application of nuclear science in medicine, agriculture, hydrology and industry has direct contribution to the socio-economic development of the country. The training course presents scope and coverage of PAEC program in these areas, also. After attending this course, the participants will be up-to-date on:

  • Major issues in nuclear power technology with particular reference to Pakistan’s nuclear power program
  • Scale of nuclear science application in medicine, agriculture, hydrology and industry in Pakistan

Course Outline

  • Historical development of nuclear engineering education
  • Post-Fukushima global nuclear power prospects
  • Worldwide experience of nuclear power plant operation
  • Nuclear power economics and financing
  • Indigenization of nuclear power plants in Pakistan
  • Innovations in nuclear power reactor designs
  • Nuclear power project management
  • Quality assurance in nuclear industry
  • Decommissioning of nuclear facilities
  • Regulatory framework for nuclear power
  • Nuclear material transportation
  • Radioactive waste management
  • Fuel for nuclear power program of Pakistan
  • International cooperation in nuclear science and technology
  • Nuclear politics
  • Nuclear power security
  • Public acceptance of nuclear power
  • Nuclear civil liabilities
  • Safety issues in nuclear power plants
  • Application of radioisotopes in medicine, agriculture, hydrology and industry
