Description

Using the neutron transport code BISON 3.0, activation calculation code FDKR and its associated data libraries, the activation calculation and analyses of all long-lived radionuclides are performed for the Fusion Experimental Breeder FEB-E. The results indicate that the first wall and blanket structure materials of the FEB-E can meet the nuclear waste disposal criteria for the NRC 10CFR61 Class C after a few weeks from shutdown. The inventory of important actinides during field reprocessing, such as 232U and 237Np, are also calculated. Their concentrations do not excess the limit value required for environmental safety
