Feasibility of denatured LMFBR's
Description
The use of denatured fuel in nuclear reactors has been proposed as a possible means for alleviating some of the safeguard concerns of the nuclear fuel cycle. In such a fuel, the fissile component would not be chemically separable from the rest of the fuel. Further, such a fuel would be subject to enrichment limitations to prevent direct use as weapons material. This paper summarizes the results of a study directed at investigating the possible use of such a fuel (233U diluted with 238U) in an LMFBR
