    Nuclear Safety




    Introduction

    I have written this book because of my firm belief

    that it is necessary to try to gather and to preserve

    in written form, and from one perspective, the

    accumulated experience in the fields of nuclear

    safety and of radiation protection. This is particularly

    important for countries where nuclear energy

    exploitation has been stopped, but where it might

    have to be resumed in future. The main accent of

    this book is on Nuclear Safety.

    From another point of view, many areas developed

    in nuclear safety studies are of interest in

    the safety of process plants too and, therefore,

    it is worthwhile writing about them. Given this

    perspective, I have tried to collect the ideas, the

    data and the methods which, in many decades of

    professional work in several countries, are in my

    opinion the most useful for ‘integrated system’

    evaluations of the plant safety.

    I have emphasized the complete site–plant system

    more than single details, so the data and the

    methods discussed are not those applied in the

    many specialized disciplines devoted to the in-depth

    study of safety but are those required for overall,

    first approximation, assessments. In my opinion,

    such assessments are the most useful ones for the

    detection of many safety-related problems in a

    plant and for the drafting of a complete picture of

    them. The more accurate and precise methods

    are, however, essential in the optimization phase

    of plant design and of its operational parameters.
