The SEAKNOT (SEvere Accident Research and Knowledge ManagemenT for LWRS) project, funded by Horizon Europe / EURATOM2027 programme (GA 101060327), is led by CIEMAT (Spain), and constituted by 17 well-known organisations from 10 countries: UPM (Spain); IRSN, CEA and LGi (France); ENEA and UNIPI (Italy), KIT, BECKER, FZJ Technologies and FRAMATOME GmbH (Germany); JSI (Slovenia); KTH (Sweden); UJV (Czech Republic); VTT (Finland); TRACTEBEL (Belgium); PSI (Switzerland, as associated partner). The four-year project aim is two-fold: to shape up a roadmap for severe accident research in the coming 10 years to achieve a substantial reduction of remaining uncertainties and a measurable progress in the practical elimination of radiological consequences; and, no less important, to efficiently manage the knowledge and knowhow transfer to the young generation of nuclear scientists and engineers. The first purpose would require: to build a Phenomena Identification and Ranking Table; to develop a relational database directory to help identifying validation experiments in each of the areas that a severe accident is traditionally split into, and to map the European experimental platforms that would be necessary to address the issues considered worth by means of networking in a sort of experimental platforms. The second purpose will be targeted with initiatives such as the Severe Accident Phenomenlology (SAP) course, the ERMSAR (European Review Meeting on Severe Accident Research), a second edition of the Severe Accident book issued by SARNET (Severe Accident Research NETwork) more than 10 years ago; and, a good number of dissemination activities. All these activities and more will be supported by the ambitious mobility programme within the project.
