Description

In the future years, important quantities of Pu will be disposable in France for water cooled reactors, what justifies that one takes interest in this energetic potential. Jointly with COGEMA, EDF has developed complete studies on the strategies of this part of the fuel cycle which allowed to conclude that plutonium recycle is interesting. This paper presents the main conclusions of these studies

Abstract (French)

Dans les annees a venir, des quantites importantes de Pu seront disponibles en France pour la filiere eau legere, ce qui justifie que l'on s'interesse de pres a ce potentiel energetique. En association avec COGEMA, EDF a mene des etudes completes sur les strategies de l'aval du cycle qui ont permis de conclure a l'interet du recyclage. Ce sont les principales conclusions de ces etudes qui sont presentees dans cette communication
