معرفی
Kim Westerich-Fellner serves as a Researcher at the Jülich Research Centre, a leading national research institution within the Helmholtz Association. Based in Building 05.3, Room 375 at Wilhelm-Johnen-Straße, 52428 Jülich, she operates within the Institute of Fusion Energy and Nuclear Waste Management (IFN), specifically in the Nuclear Waste Disposal department (IFN-2), where her work addresses critical challenges in long-term nuclear waste management and disposal safety.
Her research spans interdisciplinary domains essential for sustainable nuclear waste solutions:
- Nuclear Waste Management
- Radioactive Waste Disposal
- Nuclear Engineering
- Environmental Safety
- Radiochemistry
- Geological Repository Systems
This work directly supports national and international efforts in developing safe, regulatory-compliant disposal methods for high-level radioactive waste, with emphasis on geological repository integrity and long-term environmental protection. Her contributions align with Germany's nuclear phase-out policies and global safety standards.
No public information is available regarding student advising, specific research grants, or laboratory facilities. Current projects likely focus on advancing characterization methods for waste forms and repository safety assessments under evolving regulatory frameworks.
