Electric equipments such as cables and instrumentation panels in the nuclear power plant have many valuable material such as copper, rare metal .
Such material should be recycled for the reservation of resources and the reduction of the radioactive materials.
To recycle the materials in the electric equipments installed in a radiation-controlled area, however, we have several issues in the area of radiation control, safe treatment of asbestos and so on.
In this presentation, the issues and targets in the process of dismantling, removal and recycling of such equipments and materials will be reported.
