Safety research on advanced reprocessing process

  • 1. Japan Atomic Energy Research Inst., Tokai, Ibaraki (Japan). Tokai Research Establishment

Description

Primary request to an advanced reprocessing in future is reduction of cost and wastes. The reduction of neptunium was studied using a flow type electrolytic cell containing a carbon-fiber column electrode. Np (VI) (10-3 mol·l-1) in 3 mol·l-1 nitric acid solution was quantitatively reduced into Np (V) at the potential of 0.3 V vs. Ag/AgCl using the cell. Advanced reprocessing process is tested using solution of spent fuel burn-up with 44 GWd·t-1. (author)
