Justice in dealing with highly radioactive waste – an empirical perspective
Authors: Schwarz Lucas 
Published: November 2021

Abstract. The introduction of the Site Selection Act
(Standortauswahlgesetz, StandAG) marked the initiation
of a new repository site-selection process as well as the elimination of
injustices of past procedures. In this context, the white map of
Germany served as a basis for and symbol of an unbiased search process
(Hocke and Smeddinck, 2017). However, the publication of the Sub-Areas
Interim Report has revealed injustices in the handling of high-level
radioactive waste. For example, there is criticism that the methods
used to determine the sub-areas are immature or scientifically
dubious. There are still fears that rural areas with a low population
density will be favored, that there are imbalances in the
site-selection process between West and East Germany, or that
the discrepancy in the sense of fairness between regions that drop out
of the process and those that remain will lead to problems in
subsequent stages of the process. All of these positions show that there is inherent injustice in the
search for a repository site: at the end of the site-selection
process, a single site will receive all the high-level radioactive
waste of the Federal Republic of Germany and thus bear the potential
risks. People at this one site will live with the uncertainties
associated with dealing with high-level radioactive waste. While the
debate about geological or technical factors and challenges is
multifaceted and specialized, the issue of fairness in the
site-selection process is rarely addressed. However, fairness is
immensely important to find
a socially acceptable repository site. This paper thus focuses on the
following questions: What are the prevailing notions of justice among
those involved in the repository site-selection process? From the
perspective of the involved parties, what characterizes fairness in
the site-selection process? Answering these questions should contribute to a better understanding
of whether the repository site-selection process is perceived as just,
and what this depends on. Starting from Rawls' theoretical perspective of
justice (2005 [1971]) and Latour's contribution of the values of modern
people (2014), an empirical understanding of the stakeholders'
perception and understanding of justice in the site-selection process
is synthesized. In the context of this work, results of an empirical
survey comparing different aspects of justice, e.g., procedural,
distributive, intergenerational, and interpersonal, but also justice
as recognition, are presented and related to adjacent factors, such as
trust, emotions, or experiences. The empirical survey is intended to
provide information on whether the perception of justice is more
strongly dependent on the process, on one's own affectedness, or on
adjacent factors.
Mobile attachment for automated crack milling
Authors: Froebus Birte , Gentes Sascha , Unverzagt Christoph 
Published: November 2021

Abstract. In the dismantling of nuclear facilities, the decontamination and
remote-controlled crushing of reinforced concrete is a central point. The main
objective is to selectively remove the contaminated material in order to feed
the remaining material, which in relation to the overall system or overall
mass, represents the predominant part of the normal recycling cycle. For the
surface decontamination of the upper millimeters, several methods are
available that are constantly being optimized and further developed. However,
there is a great need for research in the demolition and selective deep
removal of reinforced concrete, e.g. in the case of cracks or eruptions into
which contamination could penetrate, or the removal of metallic fixtures. The
production of freely measurable surface geometries is a constant objective
(Edelmann et al., 2018). The German “Defined removal of highly reinforced concrete” (DefAhS) research
project was funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research
(BMBF) from October 2013 to the end of March 2018. In the course of the
project, a new combination tool consisting of indexable inserts and impact
lamellas was developed. With this method it is possible to remove highly
reinforced concrete in one operation. The following property right could be
granted: “Device for removing building material” (DE102015114122B3). Within
the research project, concrete, reinforcement and fixtures (dowels, rails,
anchor plates, pipe penetrations) could be successfully cut. It could also be
shown that it is possible to remove several layers of steel reinforcement
within a concrete matrix. The “Mobile attachment for automated crack milling” (MAARISS) research
project has been running since November 2020. The hybrid milling technology
developed in DefAhS is intended to form the basis for the milling drum used in
MAARISS. The aim in MAARISS is, among other things, a new development of the
extraction system directly on the removal unit and an automation system for
use in a nuclear facility. Cracks are to be automatically milled over in order
to enable subsequent clearance measurement by the staff on site. The
physically very strenuous work of crack uncovering should be reduced to just
one operator in a safe environment. The construction of a scaffold should be
completely dispensed with and existing transport technology (forklift or
lifting platform) should be used.
From a hard nuclear state towards a soft nuclear repository state – participation, co-designing, learning and reversibility in the site selection process for a nuclear waste repository
Authors: Brunnengräber Achim , Di Nucci Maria Rosaria , Schwarz Lucas , Themann Dörte 
Published: November 2021

Abstract. Since 2013 the site search for a repository for highly radioactive waste has been taking place in Germany within the framework of a new governance architecture and under new political guidelines. Based on experiences with nuclear politics in the past, Jungk (1977) coined the term hard nuclear state, characterized by decisions made in a top-down manner. The Decide-Announce-Defend (DAD) strategy, which branded the nuclear state at that time, led to conflicts, mistrust of authorities and blockages. In particular, massive resistance developed against the planned final repository site at Gorleben. Nowadays, after more than 60 years deploying nuclear energy, the (energy) political balance of power has fundamentally changed. Parts of the anti-nuclear movement have been integrated into the political party system and have contributed significantly to the nuclear phase-out. In the course of this, the unfinished task of final disposal has been readdressed: with the Repository Site Selection Act (StandAG, 2017), which was passed in 2013 and amended in 2017, an ongoing process of public participation is stated. The site selection process is required to be learning, self-questioning, science-based, reversible, and participatory. The StandAG § 5 not only provides a basis for a fundamental dialogue between the regulator, the operator, and the public, but also for „co-design“ by common citizens. The StandAG considers various elements from different participation-friendly theories of democracy as well as specific governance concepts, which we refer to collectively as the soft nuclear repository state (cf. Brunnengräber, 2021). Its characteristics need to be worked out, as the StandAG only provides some indications, but no criteria, for what good and sufficient participation in the site selection process means and what its conditions for success should be. Based on preliminary considerations on democratic theory and governance aspects (part 1), we present what good participation could mean in the current procedure and what the framework conditions for good participation could be (part 2). Additionally, we present main findings from participatory observations from the ongoing site search process and identify conditions and indications of a successful future participation process based on the ongoing process (part 3). In the résumé, we turn to the question of which of the democracy-theoretical elements of the soft repository state are already recognizable in the present procedure, but also whether the current procedure provides additional indications towards the soft nuclear repository state (part 4).
Development of an automated milling system for the decontamination of the wall surface in a nuclear power plant

Published: November 2021

Abstract. Nowadays, concrete decontamination is done by, e.g., grinding, milling, etc.,
always combined with labor resources. In order to relieve employees from the
monotonous and physically stressful decontamination work, a novel milling
system for automated surface decontamination has been developed and
assembled. The current work presents this new concept for a milling tool that
could automatically position itself to the wall surface and subsequently
remove surface contamination. A process chain (Fig. 1) defined in the German
Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF)-funded project ROBDEKON was
introduced first. The chain consists of a total of five steps for a compact
process, from environmental exploration to the transportation of waste. This
automated decontamination is the third step in the process chain for
decontamination of building structures in nuclear facilities. The structure
(Fig. 2) of the milling system and the function of each component
are then explained in detail. With the assembled sensors, such as a
laser distance sensor, a force sensor etc., the various physical quantities
can be measured in real time, thus enabling automation of the milling process
during decontamination.

AbstractGrain boundary diffusion (GBD) of multiple rare earths has proven effective in enhancing the performance of permanent magnets, whereas the diffusion behaviors are still unclear due to their intricate interactions. In this work, the synergistic effects of three rare earths (Tb, Ce, and La) on the grain boundaries diffusion process are investigated, achieving a high‐performance diffused Nd–Fe–B magnet with the high coercivity of 1822 kA m−1 and thermal stability of −0.447% K−1. This promotion originates from the improved diffusion depth of Tb at specific regions, induced by the coordination effects of Ce and La, as evidenced via electron probe microanalysis and the first‐principles calculations. It thus results in the uniform formation of Tb‐diffused magnetic harden grains, associated with the strongly pinned domain walls, which is further observed directly by in situ Lorentz transmission electron microscopy and reconstructed by micromagnetic simulations. The study provides insight into the role of element GBD mechanism and has promising potential to explore other element systems as diffusion sources for permanent magnets.

AbstractDue to their high theoretical energy densities and superior safety, thiophosphate‐based all‐solid‐state batteries (ASSBs) are considered as promising power source for electric vehicles. However, for large‐scale industrial applications, interfacial degradation between high‐voltage cathode active materials (CAMs) and solid‐state electrolytes (SSEs) needs to be overcome with a simple, cost‐effective solution. Surface coatings, which prevent the direct physical contact between CAM and SSE and in turn stabilize the interface, are considered as promising approach to solve this issue. In this work, an Al2O3/LiAlO2 coating for Li(Ni0.70Co0.15Mn0.15)O2 (NCM) is tested for ASSBs. The coating is obtained from a recently developed dry coating process followed by post‐annealing at 600 °C. Structural characterization reveals that the heat treatment results in the formation of a dense Al2O3/LiAlO2 coating layer. Electrochemical evaluations confirm that the annealing‐induced structural changes are beneficial for ASSB. Cells containing Al2O3/LiAlO2‐coated NCM show a significant improvement of the rate capability and long‐term cycling performance compared to those assembled from Al2O3‐coated and uncoated cathodes. Moreover, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy analysis shows a decreased cell impedance after cycling indicating a reduced interfacial degradation for the Al2O3/LiAlO2‐coated electrode. The results highlight a promising low‐cost and scalable CAM coating process, enabling large‐scale cathode coating for next‐generation ASSBs.

AbstractThe timely arrival of novel materials plays a key role in bringing advances to society, as the pace at which major technological breakthroughs take place is usually dictated by the discovery rate at which novel materials are identified within chemical space. High‐throughput experimentation and computation strategy, now widely considered as a watershed in accelerating the discovery and optimization of novel materials in virtually every field, enables simultaneous screening, synthesis and characterization of large arrays of different material classes toward identification of the lead candidates for given system and targeted application. However, the ability to acquire data, through the continued advancement of automation platforms and workflows especially in the field of battery research and development, often outpaces the ability to optimally leverage obtained data for improved decision‐making. Closing this gap inevitably calls for adapted algorithms, development of reliable predictive models and enhanced integration with machine learning, deep learning, and artificial intelligence. This Review aims to highlight state‐of‐the‐art achievements along with an assessment of current and future challenges as well as resulting perspectives toward accelerated development of advanced battery electrolytes and their interfaces.

AbstractThis study assessed the psychological predictors of preferences for return of comprehensive tumor genomic profiling (CTGP) results in patients with advanced cancers, enrolled in the Molecular Screening and Therapeutics Program. Patients completed a questionnaire prior to undergoing CTGP. Of the 1434 who completed a questionnaire, 96% would like to receive results that can guide treatment for their cancer, and preference for receiving this type of result was associated with lower tolerance of uncertainty. Sixty‐four percent would like to receive results that cannot guide treatment, and lower tolerance of uncertainty, self‐efficacy, and perceived importance were associated with this preference. Fifty‐nine percent would like to receive variants of unknown significance, which was associated with lower tolerance of uncertainty, higher self‐efficacy, and perceived importance. Eighty‐six percent wanted to receive germline results that could inform family risk. This was associated with higher self‐efficacy, perceived importance, and perceived susceptibility. Although most patients wanted to receive all types of results, given the differing patient preferences regarding the return of results depending on the utility of the different types of results, it appears critical to safeguard patient understanding of result utility to achieve informed patient choices. This should be accompanied by appropriate consent processes.

AbstractCoronavirus disease‐2019 (Covid‐19) disrupted the in‐person teaching format of anatomy. To study changes in gross anatomy education that occurred during August–December, 2020 compared to before the pandemic, an online survey was distributed to anatomy educators. The 191 responses received were analyzed in total and by academic program, geographic region, and institution type. Cadaver use decreased overall (before: 74.1 ± 34.1%, during: 50.3 ± 43.0%, P < 0.0001), as well as across allopathic and osteopathic medicine, therapy, undergraduate, and veterinary programs (P < 0.05), but remained unchanged for other programs (P > 0.05). Cadaver use decreased internationally and in the US (P < 0.0001), at public and private (P < 0.0001) institutions, and among allopathic medical programs in Northeastern, Central, and Southern (P < 0.05), but not Western, US geographical regions. Laboratories during Covid‐19 were delivered through synchronous (59%), asynchronous (4%), or mixed (37%) formats (P < 0.0001) and utilized digital resources (47%), dissection (32%), and/or prosection (21%) (P < 0.0001). The practical laboratory examination persisted during Covid‐19 (P = 0.419); however, the setting and materials shifted to computer‐based (P < 0.0001) and image‐based (P < 0.0001), respectively. In‐person lecture decreased during Covid‐19 (before: 88%, during: 24%, P = 0.003). When anatomy digital resources were categorized, dissection media, interactive software, and open‐access content increased (P ≤ 0.008), with specific increases in BlueLink, Acland's Videos, and Complete Anatomy (P < 0.05). This study provided evidence of how gross anatomy educators continued to adapt their courses past the early stages of the pandemic.
Sustaining superior international performance: Strategic orientations and dynamic capability of environmentally concerned small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises
Authors: Zahoor Nadia , Lew Yong Kyu 
Published: November 2021

AbstractThis study examines the influence of strategic orientations and dynamic capability on the sustainable international performance of small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs). Building on the dynamic capability perspective, we propose that the interaction between entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and alliance orientation (AO) facilitates dynamic capability and, in turn, the sustainable international performance of SMEs. Using survey data from 211 environmentally concerned SMEs in the United Arab Emirates, the study finds the significant effects of the interaction between EO and AO on dynamic capability. Further, the results support that dynamic capability mediates the interactive effect of EO and AO on international performance. The study shows that the SMEs benefit from balancing as well as pursuing two complementary strategic orientations (i.e., EO and AO) towards developing dynamic capability that contributes to making superior international performance.

Published: November 2021

AbstractBackgroundMinimally invasive breast biopsy (MIBB) is the standard of care for the diagnosis of breast cancer, with consensus guidelines suggesting MIBB goals of 90% of total biopsies. In a previous study of patients in the rural state of Vermont, USA (population size of 640,000), rural breast cancer patients had open biopsies 42% of the time compared to 29% of urban breast cancer patients. The aim of this study was to assess overall population‐based biopsy trends in Vermont.MethodsThe Vermont Breast Cancer Surveillance System (VBCSS) was used to identify women receiving MIBB and excisional breast biopsies in Vermont. Patient zip code at the time of initial biopsy was used to determine the patient residence rurality by rural–urban commuting area codes (RUCA 2.0™).ResultsThere were 9122 diagnostic episodes from 1999 to 2018. MIBB was the initial biopsy method in 7524 (82.5%) cases, while surgical excision was the initial biopsy method in 1598 (17.5%) cases. A linear trend fit estimated an increase of 1.3% per year (p < 0.001, 95% CI 1.1%–1.5%) in the fraction of patients undergoing MIBB. Patients living in rural areas were less likely to receive MIBB (78.5%) than those living in urban areas (94.9%), p < 0.001. Multivariate analysis showed that urban patients and those patients in the years 2014–2018 were more likely to receive MIBB (OR 5.00, 95% CI 4.13–6.05 [p < 0.05] and OR 4.41, 95%CI 3.68–5.28 [p < 0.05], respectively). The rate of MIBB for rural patients increased and met the 90% quality standard in 2013 and ultimately matched urban patient rates of MIBB in 2018.ConclusionsFor the first time, we show that MIBB usage is above 90% in the state of Vermont and that there no longer exist disparities in breast biopsies between urban and rural patients or rural/urban facilities in the state, overall.
Corrosion of bauxite‐based refractory castables and matrix components in hydrogen containing atmosphere

Published: November 2021

AbstractFor the transformation to a CO2 neutral industry, fuel of traditionally fossil‐fired furnaces is substituted by the subsequently addition of hydrogen. In these studies, refractory components are identified for the corrosion of refractories in (highly) reducing atmospheres. A bauxite‐based refractory castable is set up in diluted, 9Ar 1H2, hydrogen atmosphere. Additionally, a focus is set on the behavior of a common matrix phase, anorthite.Corrosion experiments up to 1500°C using a tube furnace with the mentioned atmosphere have been scheduled. Amount and phase stability due to different time and temperature coordinates have been examined by XRD. Furthermore, the microstructure and in particular the bonding phase was observed by means of SEM and EDS. Microstructural components undergoing reaction or loss are identified and explained in regards of complete and incomplete hydrogen combustion. Reduction of impurities such as iron oxides, phosphorus oxides, and titanium oxides are considered in detail.
