Partitioning-transmutation Technology: a Potential Future Nuclear Waste Management Option
Partitioning-transmutation technology (PT) will produce radioactive wastes of different physical and chemical properties and in different amounts from those generated in the current nuclear fuel cycle. To assess quantitatively the effects of PT on waste disposal, we first analyzed the amounts of the PT wastes, assumed conditioning for each type of the waste, and then made an attempt to estimate...
متن کاملCross Sections for the Transmutation of Nuclear Waste
The final design, safety assessment and precise performance analysis of transmutation devices such as Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS) or Fast Critical Reactors, need accurate and reliable nuclear data. The cross sections of Np and Pu have been measured in 2004 at n_TOF with good accuracy due to a combination of features unique in the world: high instantaneous neutron fluence and excellent ener...
متن کاملBasic research at GSI for the transmutation of nuclear waste
In the course of the concerted action “Lead for ADT”, which preceded the HINDAS project [1], an innovative experimental method has been developed at GSI-Darmstadt. This new approach is based on the inverse-kinematics method where a liquid-hydrogen target is bombarded with heavy projectiles. The reaction products are identified in-flight in mass and atomic number in a high-resolution spectromete...
متن کاملNuclear Data Evaluation for Accelerator- Based Transmutation of Radioactive Waste
The necessity of high-energy nuclear data libraries for accelerator-based transmutation research is argued. After a brief sketch of the bigll-energy nuclear reaction chain in an incineration system, the most important data. needs for accelerator-based transmutation are categorized by reaction type and nlaterial. The present status of the collection of experimental data for high energies is inve...
متن کاملAchievable Transmutation Rates for Trus and Llfps in Myrrha
SCK•CEN wants to fulfil a prominent role in the ADS field and is currently establishing a R&D programme to finalise the design of an ADS prototype. Therefore, the ADONIS system, initially intended for dedicated radioisotope production, was revisited to give birth to the Myrrha system. The need for ADS related R&D as well as the extension of current competencies within SCK•CEN and related instit...
