Large amounts of radwastes are formed when reactor units are disassembled during decommissioning of the power units of nuclear power plants. The present communication presents an estimate of the mass of solid radwastes which are formed during the decommissioning of typical reactor facilities with VVER and RBMK. It should be noted that in the context of the present article it is supposed that structures do not become radwastes immediately after the final shutdown of a power-generating unit of a nuclear power plant but rather only during the disassembly process, which according to the accepted strategy can start approximately 30-50 yr after the final shutdown.In the period from 2016 to 2049, all 15 active reactor facilities with VVER and 11 with RBMK will be finally shut down. The final shutdown sequence for nuclear power plants and start of their decommissioning follows the program of [1]. The methods for calculating the activity of reactor facilities with RBMK and VVER are similar: first the neutron flux for each structure and then the activity and mass of the wastes are determined [2][3][4][5].The present research took account of the following basic activated elements of a reactor facility: VVER [4] -in-vessel facilities (compartment, in-vessel shaft, protective-tube block), vessel, heat-insulation of the reactor shaft, support beam, interior layers of serpentine and construction concrete; RBMK-1000 [3] -graphite masonry, pipes of process and special channels, case of the reactor, biological protection tank, metal constructions of scheme E and OR, support blocks and protective slabs, serpentine fill.The results of the computational investigations of the amount of the solid radwastes formed during decommissioning of a nuclear power plant are presented in Table 1 for currently active reactor units which exhausted their service life at nominal power, neglecting the Bilibino nuclear power plant [3,6].The investigations showed the following: 1) most of the wastes from reactor facilities with VVER are classified as metal structures and construction concrete, while for RBMK, approximately half is the graphite;2) wastes will accumulate to 2049, and their total mass will be ~50000 tons. One of the main factors determining the dynamics of decommissioning of a reactor unit is the presence of storage facilities for holding/disposing of conditioned wastes. Of interest in this connection are high-level wastes because the dose cost of handling such wastes is high and they will require subsequent centralized storage/disposal. Analysis of Table 2 shows the following: 1) on a given time segment, the high-level wastes for reactor units with VVER consist of metal structures with radioactivity decreasing slowly, while for RBMK these wastes consist of graphite, which after a holding period of 10-15 yr becomes medium-level wastes;2) the decrease in the mass of the high-level wastes for reactor units with VVER at decommissioning is negligible to 2049, while for RBMK in the period from 2016 to 2035 the high-level wastes will increase in...
