Incomplete fuel reprocessing

It is proposed to use non-aqueous methods of fuel reprocessing. Non-aqueous technologies developed in Russia and related to the processing of fuel from fast reactors with incomplete purification from fission products (about 1% of them remain in refabricated fuel) and with the release of only curium from the fuel (neptunium and americium and 1% of curium remain) allow the production of such fresh fuel for fast reactors that cannot be directly used to create nuclear weapons [XVI-9]. [Pg.456]

Inherently low decontamination factor of fuel the non-aqueous (dry) methods of fuel reprocessing could secure an incomplete removal of fission products and the separation of only curium from the fuel, which makes it possible to produce fresh fuel for fast reactors but prevents the use of such fuel for weapon programmes. [Pg.49]

New non-aqueous technologies for reprocessing the spent fuel of fast reactors have been developed in Russia. These are characterized by incomplete removal of fission... [Pg.630]
