Abstract

The modular steady states approach (MSSA) has been developed to meet the particular needs of probabilistic risk assessments (PRAs) of facilities at the back end of the nuclear fuel cycle. The application of MSSA is demonstrated for a high-level waste storage tank facility. The two principal release paths via the tank off-gas system and the cell exhaust-air system have been investigated. It has been found that component failures with negligible consequences are relatively frequent and typical for the off-gas system.
