Radioactive waste containing cellulosic materials such as cotton, paper and wood are being disposed in Low-and intermediate-level radioactive waste disposal site in Gyeongju. Cellulose has recently emerged great issue in terms of disposal site safety as it can be decomposed into an organic complex compound, ISA (isosaccharinic acid), under strong alkali conditions (pH 12.5 or higher) formed by the hydrated cement, to accelerate the mobility of the radionuclides in the disposal facility. However, in Korea, there are insufficient criteria for confirming the suitability for disposal of low-and intermediatelevel radioactive wastes including cellulose, and there is no specific method for evaluating the total amount of waste to confirm the suitability of disposal. Therefore, the method of SKB (Swedish Nuclear and Fuel Management Company), which has established acceptance criteria related to the physicalchemistry safety of cellulose, is analyzed to suggest a method for deriving the amount of cellulosecontaining waste disposal. Cellulose, an organic complexing agent, is an important consideration for safety case at the Swedish low-and intermediate-level radioactive waste disposal site SFR. SKB calculated the amount of cellulose generated by separately labeling cellulose-containing wastes of 1-2BMA, Silo and 1BTF (SKB 2013). BLA, a low-level radioactive waste disposal facility, is not considered due to its low radionuclide inventory (~0.2% of SFR’s total radionuclide inventory, SKB 2013). To calculate the amount of cellulose that can be disposed of, information on the mass and volume of hydrated cement (concrete waste, cement solidification waste, disposal container, grouting, disposal shed), the concentration of ISA absorbed in the hydrated cement, and the concentration of ISA dissolved in the groundwater which were used. In addition, the total disposable amount was calculated using the cellulose degradation rate, composition ratio, and the cellulose containing waste volume.
