Ioan Iorga was working from 2002 in several big projects like ROM 04029, BOA 3J0021 or EMERSYS. He is senior researcher in the decommissioning team from the NIPNE-HH institute from Romania. Under his coordination was successfully completed the dismantling of radionuclide effluents pipes between the reactor and the treatment plant. He has published more than 10 papers in reputed journals presenting his work. He is one of main author of the VVR-S Decommissioning plan. He finalized PhD at Faculty of Physics University of Bucharest with thesis “Studies to assess nuclear and radiological installation prior to decommissioning”. Today his main research is focused the real situation on the decommissioning field, analyzing of the radioactive waste, implementing of the simulated model and calculus in the operational radioprotection.

NUCLEAR CHEMISTRY, RADIOPROTECTION

Albina Orlova, professor, doctor science, works in the field of new inorganic materials for applications in nuclear chemistry for radwaste immobilisation of dangerous isotopes, for actinide transmutation, also for construction materials for various technology )optic, medicine). She uses the structure properties and physico- chemical principles for elaboration of new ceramics with many various mineral-like crystal forms. She is a member of the editorial board of the journal Radiochemistry, member of Interdepartmental Council on Radiochemistry under the Presidium of the RAS and State Corporation ROSATOM, member of the IAEA group of consultants on elaboration of IAEA Handbook "Processing of High Level Waste and Spent Nuclear Fuel Declared as Waste". She have more than 300 publications: papers, presentations at conferences, patents.

Professor Dr. Albina ORLOVA heads a research group in the field of crystal matrix for radwaste immobilisation. These materials allow to isolate dangerous isotopes from biosphere and recently find new applications in optic and medicine.
