        Concentrated effluent and spent ion exchange resins (IERs) from nuclear power plants (NPPs) were generated prior to the establishment of a disposal facility site and waste acceptance criteria have been temporarily stored at the NPPs because their suitability for disposal has not been confirmed. In particular, at the Kori Unit 1, which was the first to start the commercial operation in South Korea, the initially generated concentrated effluent and IERs are repackaged in large size of concrete containers and stored without provided regulation standard. The concentrated effluent is package as cementitious form in 200 L drums and repackaged in concrete containers, case of the IERs were solidified or dehydrated and repackaged in round concrete container. In this study, we review and propose a disposal plan for concentrated effluent and IERs repackaging drums that have not been confirmed to be suitable for disposal from the first operating nuclear power plant, Kori Unit 1, 2. First, the concentrated effluent was stored in four 200 L drums respectively, and then, it was again stored in concrete container and which was poured on top using grouted concrete. Therefore, the process was required by cutting concrete container for extracting the internal drums at first. Internal radioactive waste should be crushed to the suitable waste criteria and solidified, finally disposal in to the polymer concrete high integrity container (PC-HIC). IER was repackaged and disposal in square type of 200 L concrete drums respectively covered the cap. So, extracting the internal drums should be extracted after removing the cap of external concrete container. Cement solidification drums can be crushed and re-solidified or disposed in the PC-HIC. Stored IER after dehydrated can be disposal in PC-HIC. In conclusion, the container was used as a package that repackaging the concentrated effluent and IER was separated into two different types of waste depending on the level of contamination of radioactivity, the polluted area is disposed of as radioactivity contamination or the unspoiled area will be treated as self-disposal waste.
