| Sumari: | A monitoring plan is an important part of a disposal programme. Monitoring a deep geological repository for the disposal of radioactive waste faces several challenges. These may arise from the technically demanding environment in which the monitoring equipment must operate or from the potentially long period of time during which they must operate. Over the past decades, a lot of experience has been gained in monitoring experiments in underground research laboratories (URL).
Since the HADES URL became operational in the 1980s, thousands of sensors have been installed. To document the experience gained in this context, ONDRAF/NIRAS launched a research project to evaluate the performance of the monitoring equipment implemented in the HADES URL. This required developing a method to assess the performance of sensors in a consistent way. The methodology is explained in this paper and illustrated for the instruments installed to monitor the THM response of Boom Clay to the large-scale PRACLAY in situ experiment. |
