The utilization of nuclear fuel in nuclear power facilities comes with the inherent risk of radioactivity. As a result, it necessitates specific and secure handling to prevent exposure to the environment and individuals.
Adhering to international directives, each nuclear reactor must guarantee the safe storage of used fuel rods.
Bangladesh has consistently emphasized the paramount importance of safety to ensure that the radioactivity from uranium fuel remains contained and does not contaminate the surroundings in any way.
Bangladesh has entered into an agreement with Russia focused on the efficient management of nuclear waste, especially high-quality nuclear fuel waste or spent fuel. Per this agreement, Russia will be responsible for the retrieval and management of high-quality nuclear fuel waste from Bangladesh.
Russian authorities outline that the spent fuel undergoes reprocessing to enhance long-term safety. The final stage involves burying high-level radioactive waste 400 meters below ground in uninhabited regions, ensuring secure containment.
