Portraits of Researchers

Stephan Hilpmann (HZDR)

The safe disposal of heat-generating high-level radioactive waste is one of the greatest challenges facing our society. At our institute, we conduct research into the relevant physical, chemical, and biological processes that can occur in a disposal facility. This enables us to generate important findings for the most comprehensive and reliable safety assessment of disposal systems possible.

Participating Helmholtz-Centers

The research field energy comprises 5 Helmholtz-centres. In addition, the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) is associated scientifically.
