Thorium fuel utilization: Options and trends. Proceedings of three IAEA meetings held in Vienna in 1997, 1998 and 1999

Description

A series of three IAEA meetings on utilization of thorium fuel were held in Vienna over a period of three years, 1997-1999. The purpose of the meetings was to access the advantages, shortcomings and options of the thorium fuel under current conditions, with the aim of identifying new research areas and fields of possible co-operation within the framework of the IAEA Programme on Emerging Energy Systems. Apart from current commercial reactors, the scope of the meetings covered all types of evolutionary and innovative nuclear reactors, including molten salt reactors and hybrid systems. This document contains individual presentations delivered at the meetings. Each of the presentations was indexed separately
