Description

Heavy concrete with depleted uranium one being developed to utilize the excellent shielding ability of uranium. The main purpose of this study is to develop good shielding material which can be used for a spent fuel storage cask. In addition, the economic benefits of a concrete cask and the effective utilization of depleted uranium are also recognized
