ABSTRACT:
A container for the storage of radioactive elements, more particularly fuel elements or waste from reprocessing plant which produce heat and radiation over a long period of time, which container provides protection from external mechanical action and discharges heat from the radioactive elements, comprising: a block of heat-resistant reinforced concrete in which elongated chambers for receiving the radioactive active elements are arranged together with cooling systems which surround the chambers and which are connected in heat-conducting manner to the chambers to discharge the heat produced by the radioactive elements.
