AbstractGlobally, the nuclear industry has a large number of legacy wastes that are stored in ponds, silos and tanks that are nearing the end of their design lifetime and hence said wastes need processing. In the UK there are significant quantities of radioactive sludge that have arisen from the corrosion of early Magnox fuel cans which have been stored underwater. As part of the present aggressive clean-up programme these materials will be retrieved, separated, processed and immobilised as dry waste forms for long-term storage. It is envisaged that hydraulic retrieval will be used for these ILW sludges resulting in some activity being released from the sludge phase to the process liquors challenging downstream ion exchange effluent treatment plants.In order to understand this challenge, experiments have been conducted on sludge in ILW storage ponds and during sludge transfer operations to study the activity released from said sludges. In particular the solubility, adsorption behaviour of Sr-90 is discussed and how this and other aspects of the sludge chemistry impact upon the ion exchange effluent treatment process. The novel methodologies employed to obtain this data is also discussed.

A model of moisture movement in wood is presented in this paper in a two-dimensional-in-space formulation. The finite-difference technique has been used in order to obtain the solution of the problem. The model was applied to predict the moisture content in sawn boards from pine during long term storage under outdoor climatic conditions. The satisfactory agreement between the numerical solution and experimental data was obtained.

The introduction and active use of information transmission and storage systems in the Ministry of Defense (MoD) of Ukraine form the need to develop ways of guaranteed removal of data from media after their use or long-term storage. Such a task is an essential component of the functioning of any information security system. The article analyzes the problems of guaranteed destruction of information on magnetic media. An overview of approaches to the guaranteed destruction of information on magnetic media of different types is presented, and partial estimates of the effectiveness of their application are given by some generally accepted indicators of performance evaluation. The article also describes the classification of methods of destruction of information depending on the influence on its medium. The results of the analysis revealed the main problems of application of software methods and methods of demagnetization of the information carrier. The issue of guaranteed destruction of information from modern SSD devices, which are actively used in the formation of new systems of information accumulation and processing, became particularly relevant in the article. In today's conditions of development of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, methods of mechanical and thermal destruction are more commonly used today. In the medium term, the vector of the use of information elimination methods will change towards the methods of physical impact by the pulsed magnetic field and the software methods that allow to store the information storage device, but this today requires specialists to develop new ways of protecting information in order to avoid its leakage.
